Description: The origins and purpose of this patch remains unclear, even now. It is believed the green figure holding the dagger is wearing the cloak to represent the cloak and dagger nature often associated with black projects. There is a star in the northern hemisphere over Europe and under the letter "S" and another red star in the American Southwest. The red star may be a reference to an operating location but it is not clear what it might be. It remains a mystery....
Description: This patch, which is linked to Air Test and Evaluation Squadron Nine, is believed to date back to when the unit was involved with the TSSAM missile program.

Description: "Keep your distance, you who are uninitiated." The motto of the 416th Flight Test Squadron Special Projects Flight based at Edwards Air Force Base. The phrase, "Procul Este Profani" is associated with Virgil's The Aeneid. It comes from when Apollo arrives at the Temple of Apollo where the prophet Sibyl utters the words "Procul, O procul este profane" before descending into Hades and discovering the future of Rome.
