Blackinton made mine, circa 1988 or so, and had been in the business for decades before that. Chances are good that they're the ones who made yours in the early 60's. Give them a shout, maybe they'll make you a reproduction. www.blackinton.com/home/default.aspx

I have a badge collection from my time in the fire service. I was a Federal Fire Fighter for 30 Years and of course 4 in the Corp. I have two badges in my collection one from MCAS Cherry Point and one I found in a pawn shop in Japan. I have not seen any others. I don't know if the Marine Corp gives them to their Graduate class at Goodfellow but if they do you might check with the school at Goodfellow AFB Tx. They give the Air Force Fire Fighters their badges at graduation. I would be willing to bring a badge to the reunion for you to see. Looking forward to the reunion been a while.

I have two "Crash Crew Badges", one is from Beaufort, it has a Marine Corps Emblem in the center, and is silver and has 6461 on it the other is a gold badge with a Crash Crew holding a F8 says NCOIC on it and 7051. I will be at the reunion and will bring both of the badges with me. They were an "open purchase" made by a company that made assorted badges (police, firemen, etc.) You are welcome to take a picture of both of them. Steve

Looking forward to the reunion and seeing PI again, was there when my son Graduated in 1994 before that 1972, will we go to Pass and ID to get a pass? Also same at Beaufort MCAS haven't heard the plan? All take care see you at the reunion. Semper Fi Mikeyb

The Navy Yard shooting may change security at MCAS & PI but as of today, PI public affairs will have a list of the people attending the reunion and all you need to do is approach either gate with proper photo ID's for everyone in your vehicle. Inform the MP'S of our group and why you are there and you should be okay. If there is a change, PI will let me know. Our new banner will be on the rear of the bleachers facing the parking lot by the parade deck. Bruce
