102nd Air Operations Group patch
The outer border of the patch is a tie to Cape Cod's nautical heritage. The F-15 Eagles separating the text represent the 102nd's former alert mission. The hand, olive branch and dagger are a link to STRATCOM. The 8 and star are a link to 8th Air Force and the star is over Otis. The lightning bolts are a symbol of the command and control mission of the 608th Air Operations Center. And, finally, the four stars on the bottom of the inner circle are symbolic of the fighter squadron's four consecutive Outstanding ratings during its last four Alert Forced Evaluations. It is a metaphor for the excellence of the past and the standard the 102nd Air Operations Group is shooting for now and in the future.

101st Intelligence Squadron
The 101st Intelligence Squadron is subordinate to and located with the Headquarters, 102nd Intelligence Wing of the Massachusetts Air National Guard at Otis Air National Guard Base. Its lineage traces back to the spring of 1921when it was one of the first aero units to be attached to the National Guard. The famed seagull insignia was designed by the distinguished Paul F. Seavey, artist in residence at the renowned Swain School in New Bedford, and was approved for use on Nov. 19, 1924. It is the oldest patch still in use in the U.S. Air Force. Superimposed on the circular insignia is a white seagull, native to New England skies and known for its sturdy build and keen vision. Originally, the seagull symbolically represented the squadron's reconnaissance ability to act as the watchful eye for military ground forces, observing and photographing related activities. Able to endure New England's unpredictable weather, the seagull is steadfast in purpose and courageously persevering in combat. The inner circle of blue originally represented the water of Boston Harbor which surrounds Logan International Airport, the squadron's first home. It now represents the skies of Massachusetts and the Atlantic Ocean which surrounds Cape Cod. The patch is encircled by a gold ring, traditionally the symbol of unity, strength and golden opportunities for development. The golden ring literally and symbolically adds color to the insignia and good fortune to the squadron.
