Teamski Posted May 9, 2009 Share #2 Posted May 9, 2009 All are good WWII era patches except, of course the 26th ID and possibly the 1st Marine Division. Can we get a close-up of the back of the 1st Marine patch? Thanks! -Ski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriscoHare Posted May 9, 2009 Share #3 Posted May 9, 2009 Hmm... I also think that the 26th ID and 1st Marine Div patches are post-WWII. The 1st Marine one's threads look too thin on the back. I think the 8th Army one might be a post-WWII one as well. It's hard to tell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FriscoHare Posted May 9, 2009 Share #5 Posted May 9, 2009 The 26th is post-WWII. I sold one with the same back not too long ago on eBay. As for the 8th Army, I think its a Korean War era piece. The manufacturers did not cleanly cut off the base material of most of my Korea pieces, leaving a khaki twill border around it. Finally, judging by the width of the return threads of the 1st Marine Division patch, IMHO, its post-WWII as well. (Sorry, no pics. My scanner is acting up. I'll try to post them later.) Otherwise, the others look good to go WWII pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
