navyman Posted December 21, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 21, 2014 Hi guys, Last weekend I stumble across this ebay auction for this patch with 30 mins left to go. A forum member was kind of enough to send me pictures of a real one a while back so I knew what to look for . Thanks again Bob C. It looks like this was taken off a jumper. This was on my list for over 15 years. Got it at a great price too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Minton Posted January 13, 2015 Share #4 Posted January 13, 2015 Very cool. I have one, but am 110% sure it is a reproduction. Now I know what to look for when I am ready to spend more than $3.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airman86 Posted January 13, 2015 Share #6 Posted January 13, 2015 Not to sound uneducated, but what patch is that? I see USN harbor net tender but am not sure what that is. Very nice looking patch though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garth Thompson Posted January 13, 2015 Share #7 Posted January 13, 2015 Not to sound uneducated, but what patch is that? I see USN harbor net tender but am not sure what that is. Very nice looking patch though! Probably the scarcest WW2 US Navy patch used by the crews of small ships that opened, closed and did maintenance of the underwater submarine defense nets at the entrances to harbors.
