dskjl Posted April 9, 2015 Share #12 Posted April 9, 2015 It always amazes me what comes out of the wood work but what really impresses me is you guys find the records, nice find and really cool that you were able to pull up some documentation.

suwanneetrader Posted April 12, 2015 Share #21 Posted April 12, 2015 Ron: Thanks for posting If not me then at least a nice guy like you has saved it. I do not think I have ever seen a Navy jumper with 3rd Div ssi. Some dress uniforms yes but not a Blue jumper. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share #22 Posted April 12, 2015 Richard thanks for your comment.This is actually the second patched 3rd division jumper I have. Years ago I bought a set of greens and a jumper to the same individual.The 3rd pat h on that jumper was sewn on upside down.Have seen this inadvertently done on other uniforms worn by corpsmen.

doyler Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share #24 Posted April 13, 2015 Just speculating that the person who sewed it on didnt know the correct orientation of the patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
