I know someone who can get the HAWGSMOKE 2008 patches directly from the host unit. They are about $6.50 each paying via PayPal. Anyone who is interested in one, please send me an email or a PM and I will forward your information to him.
I would post a pic but knowing that patch pirates surf sites like these looking for images to reproduce patches from, I would prefer not to give them the opportunity. The patch is similar to prior year's competitions, with the cigar smoking Hawg pilot as the center of the patch. Except next year's patch has the siloutte of an A-10 above the Hawg's head, a GAU-8 to the left, and a bull-riding cowboy on the right. The background is red on the top and green on the bottom, and there is a red lightning bolt going through the middle of the patch. On top it says 'HAWGSMOKE 2008' and on the bottom 'Salina, Kansas' Notably the smoke from the Hawg's cigar is back this year, for some reason the 2006 competition patch left it out...
Overall, it is very well done, and the unit is selling them as a fund raiser, so don't hesitate to buy as many as you want!
Cheers! M2
