ocsfollowme Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share #129 Posted February 12, 2015 I have about 30 mirror patch photos that I have collected from the years that are not in the grouping that the ASMIC pub had a while ago. I am a fan of these...let me know if you would be willing to sell or trade yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocsfollowme Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share #130 Posted February 21, 2015 Not sure what these are. Could be decorative home front. Both are black backed threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwb123 Posted March 1, 2015 Share #132 Posted March 1, 2015 Not sure what these are. Could be decorative home front. Both are black backed threads. Screen Shot 2015-02-21 at 9.35.06 AM.jpg I don't think these are representing an actual organization of any type. I think they are more of a fashion item, something that might be on a little boy's blazer. But that is just an educated guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocsfollowme Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share #133 Posted March 9, 2015 I picked up a few Ordnance Works patches on eBay this weekend for under $10 each! Both are damaged, but that is fine by me.

ocsfollowme Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share #136 Posted March 9, 2015 Here is a Victory patch for something unknown. The "V" actually looks like rifles. Not sure what it stands for, but I like anything with a "V" for home front. HD = home defense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocsfollowme Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share #140 Posted March 17, 2015 Here is a Navy Seabee patch from the U.S. Naval Advanced Base Depot Davisville, Rhode Island--Civil Police. Does not glow. I think this dates around February 1942-1943...did it then become Training Center? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Z Posted March 18, 2015 Share #141 Posted March 18, 2015 These are all remarkable symbols of the collective American patriotic mindset so long ago. These could be a separate pictorial history book themselves. Thanks all for sharing these awesome patches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocsfollowme Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share #142 Posted March 23, 2015 A fun home front training patch, Disney created, for Jacksonville, FL Naval Air Station. Must be a school novelty patch. Has the duck coming out of a hatched egg...sort of like a graduation patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
