Brigade-Piron Posted January 6, 2013 Share #1 Posted January 6, 2013 Hello! Apologies for what might appear a stupid question. On one of my ebay searches I found a US 82nd Airborne SSI with the tab - instead of reading "Airborne" read "Belgium". I'm absolutely certain that it isn't a Belgian insignia, so is it an official US one of some type? A veterans' association perhaps? I'm a Belgian militaria collector first and foremost so apologies for being so green in the world of US collecting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwb123 Posted January 7, 2013 Share #5 Posted January 7, 2013 The vendor has a lot of "commemorative" patches. I think he got the idea from some of the ones you see with a Vietnam or Grenada tab. While his intention might be good, I can't imagine a real veteran of WWII buying this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
