I finally got my Hyas Chuck F2

I am so happy. After many years of desire I finally had the money to nab me a Hyas Chuck Kah Sun Klatawa F2 on Ebay. I got it for cheaper than expected but this piece is in excellent condition and plugs my last patch hole in Hyas Chuck. Now I chase the neckerchiefs.
What is so special about this patch is that it was produced just before the 1960 National Jamboree and the lodge was changing it’s name from Hyas Chuck… to Skyloo so the balance of the flaps were given to the OA members going to Jamboree for trade. There was a low number produced of these flaps (200 to 300) and most of them are not located within the Oregon borders. This flap is consisdered a 8 to 9 in difficulty within the Pacific Northwest. I have not seen a dupe or one for trade in over 5 years.
I know that the first chief of Skyloo Lodge and former Hyas Chuck member wears one on his uniform and I had for years tried to get him to part with it. The one I picked up is from a long time collector in Oregon that is selling off his collection.
Well next Sunday or Monday I will report on the W1A Conclave. May all of your patch pursuits be gratifying.
