Here are some more Naval Special Warfare patches. What I don't know is if any of this stuff is real, reproduction, commemorative or a complete fantasy.

Thanks for posting these! The commander NSWG-1 and the NSWG-2 patch are definitely good. The NSWG-3 one might be good as well. I believe the rest are souvenir/ veteran pieces, as well as some fantasy/ reproduction pieces ( the NSWU-10 patches seem to be Militrader repros).

Thanks for your input. Here is another which is probably another repro as I believe it came from the same source as the other NSWU-10.

I obtained these recently. What era are they? I guess Group 1 and Command are original, and Group 2 is novelty?

I just picked up a variant of the NSWG-1 patch which I think is genuine based on some of the other things that was up for bid by this same seller.

Just curious as to what time period you feel this is original to?

I don't know.  I collect different versions of this type of USN patch with the winged griffon, lion body and fish tail clutching the red line.  I have never come across this variant before and if it was fake I would have thought I would have encountered more of them in the collector's market.   This could have been produced for one of the naval reserve units as there is or was a NR NSWG-1 in Sacramento, NR NSWG-1 Det 113 in Springfield, MO, NR NSWG-1 Det 119 in San Diego, CA, NR NSWG-1 Det 122 in Seattle, WA and NR NSWG-1 Det 219 in Port Hueneme. CA.

That team patch is very nice. I have a picture of it “in the field” somewhere. I have been on the hunt for one of these since I first saw it almost a decade ago…
