2Dogs Posted March 23, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 23, 2011 I have been trying to track down the dates this patch was worn with no luck. Can anyone help me out. Thank you all in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Kraut Posted March 23, 2011 Share #2 Posted March 23, 2011 The patch was approved on January, 21st 1944. As far as I remember, the use of patches was banned by the USMC 1947. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmCapp Posted March 25, 2011 Share #3 Posted March 25, 2011 Like previously posted, the seagoing marine patch was approved for wear with Letter of Instruction 641 on 21 January 1944. On 23 September 1947 LOI no. 1499 abolished the wearing of shoulder patches by the Marine Corps effective 1 January 1948. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
