TomDL Posted November 24, 2025 #1 Posted November 24, 2025 I am familiar with three of these patches, specifically the Alaskan Defense Command, Pratt & Whitney Aircraft, and the Bosch. The rest I do not have any info on, any help would be appreciated.
Edward C Bell Posted November 24, 2025 #2 Posted November 24, 2025 the red, yellow and blue one is a WWII army replacement command school patch, and the gold wreath is a meterious unit commendation patch.
Solution Uniforms of the Day Posted November 25, 2025 Solution #3 Posted November 25, 2025 The blue patch with yellow unicorn is the 6th Armored Cav Regiment

Uniforms of the Day Posted November 25, 2025 #5 Posted November 25, 2025 The United States Army patch is a generic branch PX type that you could buy for wear on a civilian jacket or whatever. The "RANGER" tab means that the wearer successfully completed Ranger School.
Uniforms of the Day Posted November 25, 2025 #6 Posted November 25, 2025 Honestly, I can't see the photo well. It looked embroidered to me. Back photos actually help as much, if not more, than front photos in terms of evaluating age, origin, etc.

CinamonToastCrunch Posted November 26, 2025 #9 Posted November 26, 2025 The embroidered allies patch is probably not military. The biker patch with wings is some 1960s biker patch. The United States Army patch might be some promotional item, I've seen similar ones but not worn by members in service besides from custom tour jackets.
vintageproductions Posted November 26, 2025 #10 Posted November 26, 2025 The winged motorcycle patch was worn on AMA / Harley style riding hats.
