doughboy Posted April 12, 2017 Share #1 Posted April 12, 2017 Hi, Yesterday I searched in the web for infos on Ledo Road patches and I also found a patch that I have never seen before.Can someone of you tell me what this is - it looks like a CBI patch without star and sun but a hill added.Thank you for your help. doughboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdogchristy90 Posted April 12, 2017 Share #2 Posted April 12, 2017 I tried researching this for you but no luck. I will say however that it sure looks CBI. That's clearly a mountain range up top and the star and sun below are clearly taken from the CBI patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILL THE PATCH Posted April 12, 2017 Share #3 Posted April 12, 2017 That patch had a thread started already, it could be a repo of a rare CBI patch, if it's real it's a rare one. But these were made by some company that makes them look real. Not to fool people but for collectors. Sorry I don't have the link for the old thread. Someone will chime in don't worry.
