EAGER LION 2015 B-52 PATCH, JORDAN / NATO 96TH
Two B-52s flown by crews from the 96th Bomb Squadron participated for the first time in the 2015 Eager Lion Exercise in the country of Jordan. Both aircraft demonstrated conventional weapons capabilities in a live bomb delivery for review by NATO partner military organizations, to include the King of Jordan. This patch was created for the flyers that participated, specifically, and was given to them in recognition of this event. I am making this patch available to collectors. It is a uniquely important historical patch, especially considering the state of the World at present.
