I believe this is a fully embroidered on wool example. If you look closely at the outer edges can you tell if the base material is wool? Here is one I have with a little more more of the base material exposed and it is definitely wool and not twill or cloth. I have seen at least 4 example of different WW II US Marine Corps patches that are fully embroidered on wool, although the 13th defense Battalion is the only one I have seen that has the very distinctive zig-zag pattern embroidery.
