Pbaczuk Posted January 21, 2019 Share #1 Posted January 21, 2019 Here is a fun one I found. This one is big at nearly 12". I believe this one may either be WW2 reunion patch or one made in Japan or Okinawa between the Korean War and WW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wake1941 Posted January 21, 2019 Share #9 Posted January 21, 2019 Looks Korean War to me, not WW2. Nice theater made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbaczuk Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share #10 Posted January 21, 2019 I thought about that but they left out "Korea." I know DUKWs were used then but it would have been included in the design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbaczuk Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share #11 Posted January 21, 2019 When I was in the Marine Corps, I was an Amtracker for a long time and spent years at Camp Schwab, Okinawa. I wonder if DUKWs were stationed there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly USMC Posted January 25, 2019 Share #12 Posted January 25, 2019 Great looking Patch! Thanks for posting Semper Fi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobgee Posted January 25, 2019 Share #13 Posted January 25, 2019 I was on Okinawa in 1958 & 1959, pre Camp Schwab, never saw a DUKW, USMC or USA. a very nice patch but perhaps a Reunion piece? Bobgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbaczuk Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share #14 Posted January 26, 2019 That is what I am thinking. However, the patch was made in the Far East- perhaps Okinawa because it has that style of embroidery I saw so often out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
