nchistory Posted May 18, 2020 Share #1 Posted May 18, 2020 WW1 92nd Division or Aviation patch. I thought this was a buffalo (92nd Div) sewn sideways. Looking for any thoughts. prior owner says "have been told it may be from the African American 814th Pioneer Infantry Regiment --nicknamed the "Black Devils" --- or from one of the many US Army Aviation Squadrons with similar nicknames." All help is greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nchistory Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share #6 Posted May 23, 2020 meant 92nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredhed2 Posted May 23, 2020 Share #7 Posted May 23, 2020 I think we can rule out the 814th Pioneer Inf Regt; I would be more inclined to believe it's a reversed, sideways buffalo. https://www.army.mil/article/101913/museum_exhibiting_new_items Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nchistory Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share #9 Posted May 23, 2020 This new forum is whack. Yes not 814, I guess guy thought was a variation of the black devil, although 814 looks like a mouse with a pitchfork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchistory Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share #10 Posted May 23, 2020 I guess I'm with original question..... Guess its a 92nd Artillery until proven otherwise. Got to be a duplicate in this world sewn the correct way. Must be rare, nobody has one or seen one in a photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredhed2 Posted May 23, 2020 Share #11 Posted May 23, 2020 I have seen reversed buffalo on WW 1 92nd Div patches. I agree, arty until proven otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I've seen a few facing right. I was beginning to have concerns I couldn't find a photo or uniform of a 92nd soldier with 2 service chevrons, most have one. But I did find one belonging to Benjamin Blayton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
