Capt.Confederacy Posted July 10, 2016 Share #3 Posted July 10, 2016 I have seen these ID'd as US airborne ovals made in Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumpin Jack Posted July 10, 2016 Share #5 Posted July 10, 2016 I still have my 325 metal oval that was a PX purchase in 1959. It appears to be of a heavier metal than those shown. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the 325th Inf was in the 82nd at Bragg, then these metal types could be found being made in the USA and worn in the USA by the 82nd and by extension the 101 at Campbell?
