Historical Context

In May 1942, the U.S. military removed the red center dot from the national insignia after concerns arose that it could be confused with the Japanese Hinomaru (rising sun) marking, especially at a distance or in combat conditions. This “no red dot” configuration remained in use until June 1943, when the red-and-white bar insignia was introduced. This decal set accurately represents this important transitional period in U.S. military aviation markings.

What’s Included
