daskrieg Posted July 21, 2019 Share #1 Posted July 21, 2019 Picked this up and not sure if its Navy or USMC can anyone ID this patch and the uniform it belongs too. The backing is a drab green and the stripes are black. Thanks in advance. Dwayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brig Posted July 21, 2019 Share #2 Posted July 21, 2019 Looks like Navy service stripes, worn on the cuff of enlisted men, one for each 4 years served Marine Corps uses them, too, but not in those color patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvage Sailor Posted July 21, 2019 Share #6 Posted July 21, 2019 Are they black or dark blue? If they're blue, then they are probably from USN Aviation Greens. Black? Something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzyzzogeton Posted July 22, 2019 Share #8 Posted July 22, 2019 From US Navy Aviation Greens for E7 and above. Somewhere between 1925 and 2011, when they were phased out. Black on green is the appropriate color combo. These were on a CPO/SCPO/MCPO uniform as officers never have years of service stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
