468abnarm Posted May 22, 2019 Share #4056 Posted May 22, 2019 U. S. Army Personnel DOD and Joint Activities SSI with AIRBORNE tab Additional insignia of the unit. Have also seen black and yellow tab used over this SSI. Since tab is not authorized I'm sure there were both versions used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easterneagle87 Posted June 2, 2019 Share #4063 Posted June 2, 2019 A lot of us have seen this photo and have our own comments. But this is the kind of photo that hits all the points. Here is a pretty incredible photo posted on ebay and almost at the end of it's run. At the price it's going, A LOT of folks want it...BAD. 7th Armor soldier, WITH bring backs and a pretty gal (his wife). This must have been a heck of a pair. The photos posted of her in the listed auctions are interesting as well. Talk about bravado. This photo shows him as a PVT. 3 years worth of overseas bars?!? Officers "U.S." on his overseas hats, war trophies pinned to his chest. I bet this guy was quite a character. Another photo in the listings shows him as a CPL. Enjoy the shot.

seanmc1114 Posted June 4, 2019 Share #4066 Posted June 4, 2019 U. S. Army South - the old Caribbean Command SSI - with an AIRBORNE tab. I believe the beret flash and oval are for the Special Operations Command South. Note he is not wearing DUI's on his epaulettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanmc1114 Posted June 14, 2019 Share #4071 Posted June 14, 2019 Parachute rigger wearing the old 81st Infantry Division SSI with a gold on black AIRBORNE tab. Depending on when the photo was taken, the SSI represented either the 81st Army Reserve Command, 81st Regional Support Command or 81st Regional Readiness Command. At any rate, the unit commanded and controlled Army reserve units in the Southeastern United States. The 81st SSI looks odd on a dress uniform since the actual authorized full color patch is basically a subdued patch of black on olive green.

seanmc1114 Posted June 14, 2019 Share #4072 Posted June 14, 2019 1st Information Operations Command (Land). A new one to me. The photos of the SSI I have found online all seem to show the patch is to be worn angled like the example I am posting, while this soldier appears to be wearing his with the sword pointing vertically and the lightning bolt pointing horizontally. https://www.arcyber.army.mil/Organization/1st-IO-Command/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
