ocsfollowme Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I was wondering the same thing Pat. I saw the auction too, but came up empty in my searches and didn't have the money to gamble. I think it is US though, and My best guess was that it could be a navy striker similar to a variation of the harbor net tender as seen below in this reproduction. But I have no clue, never seen it before. I like it though! -Steve OEF 11-12 veteran Selling off my 15 year private collection specializing in Home Front, AAF Schools, Aircraft Manufacturers, PX patches at www.ocsfollowme.com http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2014.gifhttp://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2015.gifhttp://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2016.gifhttp://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2018.gif Link to post Share on other sites
WorldWarPatches Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 It had BOMB DISP. Hand written below it. Looks like the 338th Bomb Sq without the barrel. https://www.ebay.com/str/worldwarpatches If you can't stand behind our troops stand in front of them! https://www.worldwarpatches.com Link to post Share on other sites

Pat, Could this possibly be a variation of U.S. Navy Torpedoman's Mate patch for the lower sleeve. The symbol sitting horizontal? Just a thought, Stoney Link to post Share on other sites
WorldWarPatches Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 I was hoping some of the big dogs that have the ex spear e ants would chime in. It was with Army and AAF items. https://www.ebay.com/str/worldwarpatches If you can't stand behind our troops stand in front of them! https://www.worldwarpatches.com Link to post Share on other sites
ocsfollowme Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Experience. Just because something was with army and air corps in a binder does not mean that it is army or air corps. Oh BTW, they had marine corps and a navy patch in the collection too!!! You have to look at the big picture. http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_nkw=1940s+WWII+US+ARMED+FORCED+SHOULDER+SLEEVE+INSIGNIA+PATCH+LOT&LH_Complete=1&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p2047675 -Little Dog I know experience was a auto check gone awry -Steve OEF 11-12 veteran Selling off my 15 year private collection specializing in Home Front, AAF Schools, Aircraft Manufacturers, PX patches at www.ocsfollowme.com http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2014.gifhttp://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2015.gifhttp://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2016.gifhttp://www.usmilitariaforum.com/usmfribbons/donation2018.gif Link to post Share on other sites
STONEY Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Wow, ok. Thanks for that Pat. Just because I'm new to the Forum means I can't count the past 30 years of collecting? I've been out there with many of your advanced collectors, I just choose not to join every forum under the sun. Was just trying to help, Todd Link to post Share on other sites
WorldWarPatches Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Todd, No way was I discounting your might be, I was hoping to get an " it is" I've got a few years doing this also but do not know half as much as some of the "long time members " with ID #'s under 1000. When Scotty or Tredhead or one of the ASMIC Ex's chime in I listen. I do this for a living and don't want to insult or piss-off anyone. I apologize if you were offended. Wow, ok. Thanks for that Pat.
