QED4 Posted November 4, 2020 Share #2 Posted November 4, 2020 3rd Medical Bn pocket patch. Should be rotated so it sits squarely, the background is the 3rd Division patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QED4 Posted November 4, 2020 Share #5 Posted November 4, 2020 No. the hilt of the sword should be in the lower right corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted November 5, 2020 Share #6 Posted November 5, 2020 It is the duly authorized DI for the 3rd Medical Battalion, not exactly sure when it first comes out (TIOH curiously don't have it listed), but it shows up being worn in the Korean War, like in late 1951-early 1952.

Buffalo Grunt Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share #7 Posted November 5, 2020 I actually found a Facebook page for veterans of the 3rd Medical Bn and it looks like the design actually goes the other way (hilt upper left) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
