tony75 Posted July 21, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 21, 2020 Hello What are your thoughts on this patch lot? I can not ID the Flag patch or the ( death before taxes) patch? Not sure if some of these are period or just all repos? Thank you Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMarineCorps Posted July 21, 2020 Share #3 Posted July 21, 2020 The Special Forces Aviation, UDT 11, SDVT 2 and Mac V SOG patches are all later reproductions. That US flag patch seems to be one of of those decorative patches that can be seen on the inside of US Navy jumpers in the 50's - 80's and beyond (there was a name for them but I can't remember it right now). The US Army Corps of Engineers looks good. Appears to be an 80's piece? The 5 Commando "Wild Gees" patch was for a mercenary unit in the Congo back in the 1960's. No idea of its authenticity as this is outside of my scope. Pretty sure the "death before taxes" is not military related given the slogan. Hope this helps!

gwb123 Posted July 21, 2020 Share #5 Posted July 21, 2020 5 Commando Wild Geese is a reproduction as well. Death Before Taxes looks like either a biker patch or a rock n' roll patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
