Dutch Infantry veteran Posted November 5, 2018 Share #1 Posted November 5, 2018 Hello everyone Does anyone know the history of the following patch? And is it anywhere for sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan H. Posted November 5, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 5, 2018 This patch is newly made and was done to sell to fans of the book and mini-series. It is not a vintage piece. My bet is that if you can find the comapny hat made this, you could get one bought for a few dollars. I've taken the liberty of enlarging your image since the one you posted was so TINY.

Dutch Infantry veteran Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share #3 Posted November 5, 2018 Thank you Allen for the info unfortunately I can't find anything about the patch. I thought maybe it was made specially for the easy company veterans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan H. Posted November 5, 2018 Share #4 Posted November 5, 2018 There have been so many patches, pins etc. made since the HBO miniseries, that I think this was just another patch made to cash in on the whole BoB craze. It certainly wasn't made prior to the mini-series and I doubt that they were actually handed out to E/506 veterans in mass. I wouldn't doubt that the veterans who were the focus of the miniseries might have gotten one, but don't think that they would have tracked all of the veterans down to supply them with one. I wouldn't doubt it if the guy who put together all of those medal cases might not have had them made specially for his framing projects. I've never seen this patch for sale, but have to admit that I wouldn't have been looking for it either. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
