Unknown NY National Guard DUI

[denfly]

Can't seem to know what unit used this pinback. Normally I see "The Clipper" with color background not NY State.

New York State Guard Brigade DUI. I'm not sure which one though as this one is obsolete.

According to the J-M 1984 Trading Post, it appears that your DI is for the 52nd FA Bde. That is not a clipper ship on it. Clipper ships were not around until approx 1850 and had nothing to do with NY.

 

It is Henry Hudson's "Half Moon" under full sail.

I didn't see that one.

 

Very similar to the NYS Guard DI's.

NY NG unit, not SG

What got me curious is the "Half Moon" ship appears to be superimposed over the state. The only DI's I've seen had either the 27th or 42nd div. over the state. Unless this is a certain variation of the 52nd F.A. Brigade, all if not most had the ship with a colored background. I searched the NYS DMNA websites heraldry section and didn't find this one there. Thanks for the input.

While researching an unrelated subject, found a better reference that this was also worn by 27th ID Div Arty beginning in 1942.

Must have been a short lived DUI.

[denfly]

Any ideas on these variations?

[denfly]

Or these?

Or these?$_103.JPG$_103.JPGs-l225.jpg

White background looks like the 54th infantry Brigade 27th Division though the stylized NY state may be a variation.

 

Green top is 27th Div MP Co.pre WW2

 

Yellow top with blue looks like 27th Div Aviation

Thanks Linedoggie. These DUI's pop up now and then with various color schemes. I thought this was 27th MP?

[Tankpatches]

your last Di posted is the 93rd Inf Brigade ASMIC # 93A, NY NG disbanded in 1940

 

The White Shielded DI New York State super imposed with Henry Hudson's ship is the 2nd Brigade NY SG ASMIC # 2J1

Here's the Wiki I started on the 93rd Infantry Brigade, well started and some unknown WIKI big wig finished, as it was very difficult for me to navigate though the procsss, I still always wanted to ADD the DI for this unit, I was sent an image of it, but just didn't and still don't know how to do it.

Same with the WIKI on the Hawaiian Division, I obviouly didn't start that one, but made many attempts at changing the patch that depicted, it the wrong one.

Wow, very helpful info on these. I have never heard of the 93rd Inf. Bde. of NY. Quite informative. Thanks guy's.

[denfly]

Anyone knows what NY National Guard unit was this?

87 Inf Bde NY NG, with ebay fingers

[denfly]

Thanks. Yeah on the fingers, he had a question mark on it because he didn't know as well.
