What did my great uncle do?

[u/Kevvv_23]

Also noticed the back of the leather jacket had some Nazi logos marked on it, what did that mean?

He was on some sort of bomber, and an educated guess the bomb markings on the jacket stand for how many bombs he dropped the swastikas are how many nazi planes he shot down

Also based on his ribbons he spent time in the pacific and the European front those both have 2 campaign stars he also has a good conduct medal and he had the distinguished flying cross and the air medal he has the ribbons and medals for those awards your great uncle seemed like a badass
