Who Fears? NS MEYER NEW YORK Pin

[futurevagabond]

I was wondering if anyone had any information about this pin I found. Based on the identification chart I believe this pin is from the 1930-1943. I'm interested if anyone knows the history of the graphics or if this is a rare piece? Thanks for reading!

It's the Distinctive Unit Insignia for the 301st Operations Group (Originally the 301st Bombardment Group). The pin most likely is a modern day copy, as the unit insignia from WWII is still in use today.

So a USAF (Reserve) Wing/Group Patch, which is stationed out of Carswell Joint Reserve Base, Texas.
