Eric Posted February 23, 2018 Share #1 Posted February 23, 2018 Hi, I am the caretaker of a purple heart named to a soldier died during a V-2 attack on Antwerp. He was with the 184th Port Company, I want to know what kind of patch would they be wearing? Engineer Special Brigade and seahorse patch? Or some other kind of patch? Hope someone can help me.
