The 90th Heavy Bombardment Group served with the 5th Air Force in the Pacific. Their nickname was the "Jolly Rogers" after the name of the group's commander Colonel Arthur Rogers. Each of the squadrons of the 90th had a variation of the group Jolly Rogers insignia in unique colors.
A group was made up of four squadrons. There were many hundreds of avaition jacket patches and I have only a few examples of them. The 1944 Special Issue of the National Geographic Magazine includes several pages of squadron insignia and is a good, but incomplete reference. A more complete reference is the book Combat Squadrons of the Air Force World War II edited by Maurer Maurer, but it can be misleading in that it often uses postwar designs for the illustration of the official squadron insignia. I hope that we will be able to include more images from viewers as they become available. Both of these sources show squadron but not group insignia.
