stratasfan Posted May 8 What does the banner on the bottom of the first one say? Strength through something . . . ? Now, the bottom one . . . I've never seen one so old, but I know the same design, just a modern patch for being a commemorative patch representing a fallen paratrooper. If you ever want a custom hand-embroidered (no machine) patch, I'm open to commissions! Pay or trade!***********************For an idea of my military collecting interests and wish list, see my profile page!Looking for Old-Style US Coast Guard Commendation Medal (w/ or w/o ribbon)! Oh, tarry and be strong; Tell God in prayer. What is thy hidden grief; Thy secret care. Yet, if no answer come; Pray on and wait: God's time is always best; Never too late.

Siamundo Posted May 10 This doesn't answer your question about the Combat Center patch, but I picked up this small group 25+years ago and had always wondered if it might be related to the 199th Infantry Brigade although I was never able to connect all the dots.
