[edit] Red Ripper Insignia

The boar's head used by the Rippers dates back to the ealiest days andis quite well known as it is similiar to the Gordon's Gin bottle and their reputation as "two-fisted, hard-drinking, bologna slinging" aviators (or something like that). Recommend inclusion of origin and tradition of their enduring symbol and the blue and red graphic design used on squadron markings. HJ 19:45, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
