I got this patch as part of a patch collectors estate. 99.9% of these have been U.S. Military. However, I'm unable to identify this patch.
Is it even U.S.? Any help would be appreciated

Sorry Sir, couldn't resist.

 

Something tells me it is British or Commonwealth...

At the risk of being a bore, I can not even think of a use for such a patch, maybe 4-H club? I'll go root around some more. :)

I was just trying to save your bacon Scott...didn't mean to hog the limelight! I was maybe thinking of this British formation patch. Doesn't your state of Arkansas have a "wild boar" connection?

I was going to mention the Razorbacks of Arkansas. Their patch typically has the stars and bars around it, otherwise, I would say that probably is Brit.

Like JS & hawdriver mentioned, the "Razorbacks" do have a boar as their mascot/logo, but I think their colors are red.

As mentioned above, the patch is the Hampshire County Division. I have a pair of these in my formation sign collection.

You can't make a sixpence out of a sow's ear. :)

That'll be a "silk purse" JS! ;) (Well someone's gotta bring home the bacon!)

Yes Ian, but I want to bring a British flavor to it! You know.....those fine Walsh hogs!

A member asked a legitimate question and gets one good response plus a bunch of really stupid ones. Any wonder there are quite a few members who no longer post anything from their collections.

Garth, this thread should have been closed after post 12. It was not, and I'm sure the author had every possible ability to close it. A bit of fun is not a bad thing, and making disparaging remarks about such a fun thread is a surprise from you.

R,

The thread went from fun to silly to ridiculous in very short order. I had a discussion just this day with a very serious medal collector who could add a lot to the forum but will not due in part to threads degenerating pretty much like this one did.
