LE LOUP DES MERS Posted January 2 Share #1 Posted January 2 Hey, so I have been looking for this patch for a very long time and finally found one but want to make sure it's original first. I have a Vietnam dated USCG bomber jacket that's missing this patch and was wondering if this patch dates to the 60s or if it's a reproduction. I believe it should be the jacket size patch as it measures 5 3/8 by 3 1/2 inches. Link to comment
ocsfollowme Posted January 2 Share #2 Posted January 2 It is a reproduction. Here are originals. Link to comment
ocsfollowme Posted January 2 Share #3 Posted January 2 The one that you pictured is offered about every 6 months by the same seller. Link to comment
LE LOUP DES MERS Posted January 2 Author Share #4 Posted January 2 That's too bad, guess I'll have to keep looking. However, I also found this one seller claims it's original from the 1960s it measures 4 1/2. Link to comment

These are what you're seeking... Link to comment
LE LOUP DES MERS Posted January 2 Author Share #6 Posted January 2 Yeah trying to find that eagle patch but everytime I find one it's always a reproduction at least the other one is original. Link to comment
