Z, look at it like this. 14 days ago that patch was taking up space in my sock drawer. It has now traveled about half way around the world and put a smile on your face. That in it self was worth my effort. Thanks for the pic, Remember the how & why you came to own that patch. Take care OYM1262

I'd like to thank you very kindly for sending me along the mission patch for STS-33...a DoD mission, elements kept secret. It came about a week ago...immediately before I was to leave for Cuba, so there was no chance to reply in a timely fashion.

I had initially planned to add an Apollo 11 medallion and pass it along to a budding high-school space nerd. However, my wife pointed out how my almost-4 grandson, who is exhibiting some signs of Asperger's, is officially a space nerd on his own. Already he knows the properties of the planets...pointed out that Ganymede is a moon of Jupiter, refers to the asteroid belt...

I'd say he qualifies. Thanks again, OYM, for your generosity and inspiration. It will be greatly appreciated by the lad.

Cheers, JC
