Backup Crew Patches

I found this for the backup Gemini 12 crew and I was wondering, save for Apollo 14, were there any other backup crew patches made and if so are they online somewhere to view?

That's a great piece of humor, but somewhat risky too: if the prime crew had died before the flight, especially in a fiery airplane crash, this patch would seem positively morbid.
