If this is supposed to be ROTC how come all the ones we see are usually Japanese raw silk, hand embroidered?

 

Plus, I think there was one in the patch shirt I posted awhile ago that only had occupation Japanese made patches on it.

The patch pictured in the first post is not the 1629th Eng. The patch pictured in the 11th post is the 1629th Eng. I will give good money to anyone who can show me and others anything different. Just my 2 cents worth. Will be at ASMIC in afew days and will pay up if need be.

Am I missing something here? The one on your jacket looks like a complete different design, similar. but very different.

This North Phoenix HS JROTC - not military - is often confused with the 1629th Engr Bn. Note the change in overall shape and that the horse's head is angled across it's neck; more importantly, the colors. The JROTC patch (US made) is always red, white, blue and yellow. There is also a DI with the same design and colors, but it is definitely a smooth edged shield shape.

 

Every single 1629th Engr Bn patch I have seen is red and white, engineer colors and Japanese made. The horse is always "snorting". Shapes vary, but they have a point in the base.

 

Attached are the JROTC patch and two 1629th Engr Bn patches.
