WorldWarPatches Posted January 27, 2017 Share #1 Posted January 27, 2017 This was with a CCC group of patches but unmarked. Someone know what it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredhed2 Posted January 27, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 27, 2017 Pat - Looks like someone was guessing CCC. CCC lasted from 1933-42, and from Dec 41 until mid 1942, most CCC personnel worked at construction of military bases (the remainder were firemen out in the boonies). Not aware of any CCC flying personnel. This is similar to the second design of the WW II Avn Cadet patch, which was worn on black and blue discs w/ the yellow-orange winged prop. AR 600-40 dated 31 Mar 44 illustrates and describes the wear of this patch, but does not give colors. Hey, it's the Army. How about the either the "colors" of a school or an OQMG test run patch? That being said, would sure like to read the opinions of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully some one can say...hey I know what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorldWarPatches Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share #4 Posted January 27, 2017 If no one has an answer I'll just invent the branch of Military Police Flying Cadets..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefighter Posted January 28, 2017 Share #8 Posted January 28, 2017 Could it be female flight cadets? Like like the same colors as the WAC's, mosstone green & gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only "female flight cadets" in WW II were the WASPs. They did not wear this and were never part of the WACs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garth Thompson Posted January 28, 2017 Share #10 Posted January 28, 2017 Here is one I have in my collection as well as a blue on red. The best guesses are these are base or unit specific but no documentation has ever been seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
