tredhed2 Posted June 18, 2018 Share #5 Posted June 18, 2018 It looks like a high-quaity souvenir patch for a US GI. Better than an "I was there" medal/ribbon. If it were Nationalist Chinese, it would not be in English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
militbuff Posted June 19, 2018 Share #6 Posted June 19, 2018 Yes, I can; I was holding it in my hand at 10:30 this morningDo you have a picture of the OD Border twill AAF HQ patch? I never knew one existed. Any idea what it was selling for and what it sold for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, while they apparently do exist, this one turned out to be bogus.
