AirMechanic Posted May 19, 2017 Share #1 Posted May 19, 2017 I found this patch at the flea market a few days ago. Can anyone tell me if this is a uniform patch or part of something else? Also, can anyone tell by the construction where this patch may have been made (CBI made or post-war Japanese)? Any help is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocsfollowme Posted May 19, 2017 Share #3 Posted May 19, 2017 Material is too thick for a scarf so I think it is a patch that was never worn and had the edges folded over. Or it just never had the leather border applied. Looks sort of like Tony the Tiger getting ready to spring into action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirMechanic Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share #8 Posted May 19, 2017 I never even knew that there was a difference between a right facing and left facing tiger. Thanks for the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CATF was before the 14th AAF. A harder variation to find. My brain wasn't working earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
