Default Please help me identify WW2 AF Squadron Logo.

I have checked every where that I can think of and still have not
located anyone who can identify this AF logo. This was the unit that a
friend of mine's father served with in the Pacific during WW2. He said
his dad was on a bomber but could not remember what type. Do you have
any connections that may identify the logo at:

I can't identify it, but it's cool as hell.

I don't know if you can get any further by contacting the Web site owner as
he might know but the history shows a fighter squadron.

Someone posted a link in RAM awhile back to a guy who had a huge collection of
patches, but I no longer have it. Does anyone else?

Someone in rec.models.scale might have references to it as the larger part
of model making is all the reference material that builds up.

Also, the two dice have the "3" side up. Maybe Squadron 33, or Three hundred
something three? (3_3)
