Gemini 4 Commemorative Mission Patch

Gemini 4 Commemorative Mission Patch

A-B Emblem produced this commemorative patch for the Gemini 4 mission, which took Jim McDivitt and Ed White into space in 1965. There was no official patch for the mission, as crew patches only became official from Gemini 5 onwards. A-B Emblem produced this patch several years after the mission.

The patch depicts Ed White carrying out the first American spacewalk, outside the Gemini spacecraft.
