The Rooster Posted January 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted January 2, 2021 Greetings all. This is the first Sub badge Ive ever owned and the seller states it came from the Korean war era. Looks like gold over Brass ? I dont know anything abut these, but from collecting wings, something told me these had the look of being the real deal and not some repro item.. Can anyone help me out with some thoughts on these ? Also, what is the correct term for this badge U.S. Navy personnel refer to it ? Thank you.

Justin B. Posted January 2, 2021 Share #2 Posted January 2, 2021 Hi! There is a "dolphins" section of the forum, you'll probably get a better response there: https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/forum/1533-submarine-qualification-dolphins-patrol-badges/ Happy New Year!

Josh B. Posted January 3, 2021 Share #5 Posted January 3, 2021 Your dolphins are good, and advertised time period is also reasonable. Cheers Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
