How about the Australian made 1st Marines tab under the MAC Defence Battalions. It is the only one I have ever seen.
Wow...I want that tab!

Whats going on with the missing white thread above the left dice? Would this have been a manufactures error?
Yes it is an error, still a nice patch to collect, just not WW2

There are many great patches in this collection and I'll post them as they come in. I have to buy this collection in parts. There are many bullion and theater made items I have never had or seen. Dave's patch looks like is a sister patch of mine.

The other documents that were in the book:
One document is a capsulized history of the 761st:
Another is a rather candid commentary on the PUC by unit historian Walter Lewis:
The Presidential Unit Citation program:
This is Frank Alexander, who had owned this book (on the inside cover he listed the pages that mentioned him and underlined those mentions inside the book):

My understanding is that CCAuction was selling on consignment for Historicalauctions.
This statement by Dan is 100% correct, CCAuction is the one that tried to sell me 14,000 LL patches that he did not own or ever even see. Neither CC or Historical are an actual AUCTION house. Truth is there are NOT 14,000 Liberty Loan Patches. Historicalauctions has sold over half the LL patches according to the owner of the collection. 14,000 is the gesstamation < my word, of how many patches were in the collection. They will be offered less and less as time goes by. He does have many of some of the more common ones, all you that paid big $$ for the rarer ones need not fear, they will not go down in value once all the hype has settled down. I an missing about 30 of the KNOWN LL patches in my personal collection and tried to buy direct from HA and he does not have any of them. I also have a few not shown in 1992 Trading post.

I don't think so, there were other Cav yellow felt patches in the same album on the same page and they are all bright yellow.

I have found a red one with an A on it (horse drawn Artillery) and a yellow (standard Cavalry) one for the 52nd, but nothing with tan or brown. Could this be for a Quartermaster in the 52nd?
