Sully Posted May 13, 2015 Share #1 Posted May 13, 2015 I bought a chocolate tin full of WW2 thru 1980's patches off a walk in to my shop. I can't seem to find a few of them. I did find the Ozarks one after I took the picture. Always looking for WW1 28th Division; anything, papers, field gear, uniforms, etc. Link to post Share on other sites

The dart one is entertaining. I thought it might have been some AF Wing or squadron patch. What is a good reference book for SSI?

tredhed2 Posted May 14, 2015 Share #5 Posted May 14, 2015 US Army patches Flashes & ovals, Barry Jason Stein. It was about $75.00 but its good. I got mine at www.CollectorBookstore.com You may fins one second hand at amazon. Its a huge book. Keep in mind that there are a lot of repros and errors in the book, and it should be used for ID only (some IDs are incorrect, too). I would not buy patches based on some of the images.
