spinnin4s Posted February 25, 2011 Share #105 Posted February 25, 2011 Thanks. Here's a nice early post-war theater-made Europeam Command patch with a matching American Forces radio tab...they're behind plastic so there's some refection in the photo.

lamarhooten Posted February 26, 2011 Share #114 Posted February 26, 2011 another pic. The man is still on active duty and would rather not have his name mentioned! Shows how the two tabs are displayed on the uniform. A GOOD shot to say the least! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

36-tex Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share #117 Posted February 26, 2011 I have been informed that this Iron Horseman Band is worn above a 4th ID patch and not the 1st Cav as shown. PROOF as to why this thread was started!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCFalkenbergIII Posted February 26, 2011 Share #118 Posted February 26, 2011 There is also the Sapper tab. I have seen it worn above the 25th ID and 82nd AB patches. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teamski Posted February 27, 2011 Share #122 Posted February 27, 2011 When did the 24th Division have Airborne elements? Was it during Desert Storm? No, I believe it was back in the 1950's when it was stationed in Germany. -Ski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCFalkenbergIII Posted February 27, 2011 Share #123 Posted February 27, 2011 The 25th ID also has an airborne element that wears the airborne tab. The 4th Airborne Brigade Combat Team . Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Andrews Posted February 27, 2011 Share #124 Posted February 27, 2011 When the 11th Abn Div was inactivated in Germany in 1958, its three Abn Inf Regts were used to form two Abn Inf Battle Gps. These were carried over, in place, into the newly-activated 24th ID. The notion of Brigades was new -- in 1958 only the 1st and 2nd were active, as Separate Bdes, at Benning and Devens, as test units. But to have an Abn-specific echelon, the 24th (apparently with no HQDA approval) conjured up the "24th Abn Bde". This provisonal Bde came close to invading Lebanon, but did not, showing the flag with an exercise in Turkey instead. In 1963, the 24th (and the whole Army) converted to the Division: Brigade: Battalion scheme, and the USAREUR Abn Inf moved under the 8th ID. BTW there was a plan to form the 174th Abn Bde (Sep), consisting of Bns of the 509th, to take the ex-24th ID abn mission, but it was instead made a Divisional bde.

J_Andrews Posted February 27, 2011 Share #125 Posted February 27, 2011 Re Post #132: The same combination was worn by 2-503rd IN when it was in Hawaii and subordinated to the 25th ID, Jun 60 to Jul 61. It was then assigned directly to USARPAC, until 1963 when it moved to Okinawa and the then-new 173rd Abn Bde. A vet told me that on Class A's they wore the black & gold tab over the USARPAC SSI but on field dress wore ONLY the tab.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
