Picked up a bag of original WWII patches this past weekend at the flea market and these were in there. I found the flash is 5th SF Group through Google (I dont do 20th c. militaria, but I buy it when I find if its cheap as I pick antiques and often see it, it pays for my own 18th and 19th c. collecting) but I was wondering if its a real Vietnam era one or later?

Also before I sell it on eBay is this a WWII or later Airborne tab? Sorry for the cruddy reverse image, if its too hard to tell what it is I'll re-shoot it. Thanks!

Both are okay and the Airborne tab looks WW2 to me. Others may have other opinions but I like them both.

Does anyone know when the type (embroidery style) of 5thGrp flash pictured by Penobscottrader were manufactured .

 

I believe the type pictured below was the earliest style produced.
