I can not figure these two out the bullion one looks like it could be 390th Fighter but they only have one wild boar on them.The other one I know must be Atom Bomb disposal unit but can not hit the right one.Thank You for looking and your comments.Scotty

A good friend of mine emailed me the answer on the DC patch it is the 3rd Brigade 7th Infantry Division Davy Crockett Artillery Unit from the early 60s.It always pays to have Friends that share their knowledge.Thank you for the ID Old Friend.Scotty

The squadron insignia may be associated with the US Navy Fighter squadron VF-11 "Red Rippers", They use that same boars head. they are also known for bullion patches which are worn on blazers. I have one of their bullion blazer patches which were sold by the base outside NAS Oceana where they are stationed, the patch has the same bullion style border. Not to say this is earlier with the prop driven plane in the center of the aircraft instrument. No ID but it may be a start.
