This would be Navy right, or is it Marines., Any idea on unit, photo taken sometime during the war, a Bob Hope Show I'm guessing.

Thank You, So Marine Corps then, we gather there must of been an array of variations with this patch during this time period, or the one in the below topic is not from the Korean War period but from WWII???.

Here's an online find that looks more like the one in use.
