Thanks Bearmon.  By the way, is there any policy regarding saving photos of items shown on the forum. other than those marked as copyrighted?  Thanks,

To the best of my knowledge the pictures are in the public domain.  So no problem saving them.   If I am incorrect someone will be along to correct me in short order.

Thanks Bearmon.  I thought as much but wanted to hear from a veteran forum member.

Pacific Fleet Mobile Photo Unit. The guy I got this from told me he obtained it from a Korean War Navy veteran. Supposedly there was another related patch with it that never turned up. I checked in on a few times over the course of a couple of years but it never materialized.

Hello,

 

Not a patch, but a Christmas card & negative for it from the Asiatic Fleet Photographic Unit, Shanghai China 1937-1938.  Lt. Phelan, the Photo Officer, was also the Asiatic Fleet Assist. Fleet Intelligence Officer.

 

Take care,
