Looking for Identification of the shown patch. I don't know if it is USAF or USN but it doesn't have USN wings.

What do the letters C H S stand for and can anyone ID the writing at the bottom..

Any help is appreciated.

Looks Korean made. The writing on the bottom also looks like it could be Korean

It's a frustrating one for sure.  I was checking US Army camps in Korea to see if it was Camp H..... Or C.... Hospital Section.

This must be a stumper?

[usaf70]

Is it Army or Air Force?

I have farmed it out to a USAF Hospital patch expert, who has written several articles on USAF Hospitals and Dispensary patches, all published in The Trading Post.  He has suggestions, but they don't appear to pan out yet.  

 

He is also farming it out to a study group.

​I agree that it does look Korean made. Is that a '2/..' on the bottom?

You should ask some people in your neighborhood if they can read the writing.......

Here is another one that is still unidentified.
Any other suggestions?

Have you asked someone to translate?

[vintageproductions]

Go on Facebook, there are numerous Korean military collector pages.

 

I am sure it can be id'd there

Any new members on board that may be able to I'D this Korean era medical patch?

Walk into a Korean Restaurant, order a meal and ask them to translate the words. 

[usaf70]

Good idea.

[usaf70]

Have now been told it is not Korean. Someone even suggested Greek.

Google translate didn't id it either.

 

Thought I would bring it back up for further ideas or with some luck an ID!

Looks like its time to buy a gyro, just bring the patch with you

I doubt those script characters are Greek.
