Siamundo Posted March 6, 2022 Share #1 Posted March 6, 2022 Found this is in a $2 box at the SOS and couldn't pass it up. Looks like someone with a little bit of talent and time on their hands made up their own patch for a V-3 Division. Pen/ink on a very soft and floppy leather disc about 7" across. Sailor looks like he has something in his right hand that may slightly resemble a crystal ball? Not sure what the panel or object on the left side is though. Have no idea how old it is, but thought it was too unusual to pass up for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvage Sailor Posted March 6, 2022 Share #2 Posted March 6, 2022 V-3 Division (Aircraft Carrier) Radioman, nice personalized shipboard patch. That may be an ice cream cone (or a turkey leg) in his left hand as it's kept relatively ice cold in the communications spaces to keep the tubes chilled.
