DwightPruitt Posted January 8, 2007 Share #101 Posted January 8, 2007 Lloyd, the 2nd was the only unit to continue wearing them that way postwar. I collect WW2 posthumous Purple Hearts. The 12th yearbook came with a group of a man KIA with the 23rd Tank BN near Offendorf, France in January 1945. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogue64 Posted February 10, 2011 Share #119 Posted February 10, 2011 This tradition was started by George Patton when he was commander of this unit.The patch should be where the heart of the man is. The right sleeve is for the unit u where in combat with. Just wanted to mention that we wore the patch on the left sleeve like others on our class A uniforms.
