2nd Division in Korea Imjin scouts & unknown patch

[norwegian blue]

Hello

I have this wool shirt from the 2d Infantry Division in Korea after the armistice. While the Imjin Scout patch has been nicely documented here, I don't know about the the other pocket patch.

Thanks

"AMU" is Army Marksmanship Unit. "OIC" is Officer in Command. The commander of the 2nd Infantry Division's marksmanship unit. Probably a unit that trained other division soldiers and competed in matches.

hi all and thanks for your interest, I'll shoot better pics of sniper tab etc. soon

And, it is Imjin, not Injun. It is about duty across the Imjin River.

Cool sniper patch!

hello

sorry about the delay, here is a closeup the sniper tab

I guess the time frame for this shirt is post-1965 then?

Wonderful looking insignia.. I have a subdued insignia of the Imjin Scout badge that is black and green. I have not seen one that is subdued and has colors with it.. This is a beautiful jacket and the patches are great as well..

I wonder what ever happened to all the consigned stuff from Manions after they went away...
