There are so many cool looking ones out there so how do I tell which ones were worn on uniforms?

The ones not worn on uniforms are called morale patches right?

Were they made for collecting only?

Thanks.

Are you talking about Divisional/Brigade Shoulder patches, or Battalion/Company/Troop In Country made pocket patches?

River Patrol

Morale or Novelty patches....many of those were also worn but not in any official capacity.....on flight bags or drinking jackets, sometimes on even the jungle jackets.....pocket patches, the vast majority of these were also unofficial, but were worn to help build morale.....some pocket patches were official SSI

Thanks. I am concentrating on WW2 patches right now but have seen several from the Vietnam era that I want.
