After being retired for a little over a year and moving into our retirement home my wife is insisting I clean up my "stuff". One of the tasks involves getting my project/mission patches mounted in a large frame and up on a wall in "my room". OK everything is going fine except for this one patch. It is associated with Project Mercury but I don't know what it represents or what side is supposed to be up. Anyone remember this? The other six have the astronauts name and the name of the mission on them. I remember that D. K. Slayton was found to have some minor heart anomally and did not fly on Mercury but I don't think this is related to the patch shown below. If you know the answer please let me know what it is. Thanks - I need to get this stuff done so I can go modify the inside of my upper cowl.
