For those that might not be aware in IL2 we were Virtual AG-51. One of guys mailed him a letter asking about a patch they may have worn. Bush replied with a great letter that was shared with us online. I don't remember exactly who it was that got the letter?

I guess that I've killed off too many brain cells since then because I don't have any recollection of such a letter. I do remember the patch though.

I'm pretty sure Hatter had the patches made for us, I think maybe one of his jaunts to Afghanistan. He may have also been the one that got the letter from President Bush. But then, for some reason Renegade comes to mind. I'll ask Renegade next time I see him.

I think you are right I believe it was Hatter.
