Hi all,
Here is an interesting find,an unofficial patch for the 160th SOAR,known as the Night Stalkers.These guys were made famous in the movie" Blackhawk Down".
What caught my eye with this piece is the way it was made,which is different from the other Night Stalkers patches I have in my collection.Most noticeably are the unusual colors used,orange scrolls and a grey border on the main disk.
This also has a cut edge,and no plastic backing.There is paper in the scroll areas and on the back of the moon.The embroidery style is a "loose " weave,seen best on the back of the main disk.

I can't be 100% sure,but everything I see on this patch points,to me at least,to it being of German manufacture.
