warcollect1942 Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share #2 Posted May 25, 2015 I just noticed that tread on the right side of the front picture. Looked at that with a magnifying glass. It looks like the patch was sewn on at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillock Posted May 25, 2015 Share #3 Posted May 25, 2015 Gidday Dennis Standard WWII era ghost patch. No not a Gemsco. Now a lot of these notional unit patches were sold post D-Day and to the collector community. There is still debate if these were ever worn,used before D-Day to fool the Germans.

phillock Posted May 25, 2015 Share #5 Posted May 25, 2015 Hi Dennis There's nothing wrong with it,Its a good WWII era SSI. Its just not a Gemsco and I don't think Gemsco produced these. There was a thread on Gemsco patches but I can't find it. Its a very distinctive panel ribbed design. Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
