Talk:1st Reconnaissance Squadron

message: For Smoth 007 and any other interested party--I think it can be seen that I am expanding this article as quickly as I am able. There is a lot of history to cover, however, including its B-29 service in WWII and it's SR-71 operations. This is part of a greater project recording the history of the 9th Bomb Group, which is also half completed. I am writing that one on my user page, but since this article existed in rudimentary form already, I am more or less compelled to write it as I go. I appreciate the temporary inclusion of the U-2 trainer role currently performed by the 1st RS at Beale--I may add a snippet to expand upon that role until the rest of the history is written. However, I will not be doing the 9th Reconnaissance Wing page. Too many articles in Wiki have confused the wing for the group and vice versa--my format not only avoids that but I hope clears up any confusion (I am almost done with a rewriteof the 1st Fighter/1st Operations Group--but again, am not going into the 1st Fighter Wing). Any help in writing the 9th RW article to complete the linkage net would be appreciated.Buckboard 16:08, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I see that Bwmoll has added the 100th anniversary emblem to the infobox.  If anyone can find them, there are two early emblems that could be added.  Along with other squadrons that saw combat in WW I, an aircraft marking was approved in November 1918 (and had been used earlier) for the 1st Aero Squadron.  It was an American Flag rippling as if in the wind.  Because use of the flag in this manner was soon prohibited, the flag marking was abandoned.  I have also seen pictures of a plane assigned to the 1st Aero Squadron in the early 1920s bearing a disc with a winged number 1 inside an annulet.  It is black and white, so I cannot tell the colors, but the number, wings, and annulet are in a light color (yellow or white?) on a medium colored disc.  I do not know if this emblem received official approval before the caveman was adopted, but it was used.--Lineagegeek (talk) 14:34, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:   I have 2 other early emblems,   One being the American Flag  (which is also depicted on two photographs I added), and another shown in Clay's Volume 3, US Army Order of Battle.  They are, however, black and white drawings which I just chose not to add.   In addition, there are several other modern emblems here: www.usafpatches.com.    Bwmoll3 (talk) 15:58, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
