Description
Gemini 10 Flown Embroidered Mission Insignia Patch Directly from the Personal Collection of Mission Commander John Young, Certified and Signed. This 3.75" x 3" patch flew with crewmembers Young and Collins aboard the Gemini 10 mission, July 18-21, 1966. The insignia is simple but symbolic. There is a large red "X" against a light blue background with two spacecraft orbiting it- a Gemini capsule and an Agena Target Vehicle. There are two stars in gold signifying the two crewmembers, the two rendezvous, and/or the two "twin" stars in the Gemini constellation, Castor and Pollux. It is one of the few patches without the crew's names. Excellent condition.On the back, John Young has written: "Flown. John Young" (low contrast).
