Very nice 10th bullion theater made patch. Matches almost exact the one I have on an Ike jacket in an extensive grouping I have from a Navigator on a B-24. Nice grouping, I hope you fill in the holes on the research. 

. Donation from my collection to the SAS museum UK.   About six years ago I donated a government sealed pattern for the 1964 Stay-Bright SAS cap badge to the SAS museum,  I was pleased last week to see it included in a new publication from the SAS archives covering  SAS insignia.           Norman D.

A few more photos for this brand; civil oil can, the base is very hard to read: G P & F  MILW  WIS, the 1944 1 QT canteen, and the USAF Strata blue painted 1951 Water can with stamping under the handle.  Cheers, Armygas

I believe that is a PT boat patch and it looks like faded out white to me. It does look theatre made 

. Film night last week.   Last week while visiting my daughter and new grandchild Aurelia I sat with my  daughter and her husband and we watched a new film called ' War Machine'  featuring Alan Ritchson and Dennis Quaid, for about three quarters of the film a wounded soldier is moved around on a modern extract litter.  I sat mildly amused as except for being wounded, when I was sixteen I did a mountain rescue course and I won the tee-shirt as I was that body,  moved around on a mountain stretcher and lowered down rock faces etc strapped into the stretcher to prevent flailing arms and legs whilst being lowered.  I pulled up an old photo of me in the stretcher to show my daughter and son-in-law.     Norman D.

ASN of O-259739.

Col. Andrew D. Chaffin, commanding officer of the 34th Engineer Group (Construction) when it was at Fort Lewis wearing the 6th Army SSI. He had a distinguished career in the Pacific during WWII with the 808th Engineer Battalion and the Engineer Section, Southwest Pacific Theatre.  Following his time with the 34th Engineer Group, he was in charge of the Mediterranean Division, Corps of Engineers. (This was an unselected proof for a formal portrait in an envelope I recently purchased).  

Good afternoon. After receiving the grouping in hand, it appears he graduated from the Officer Training Course at Craft Hall, Harvard. His name is Egedius Phillip Knudsen Jr. (quite the name), and I haven't been able to find anything in-country but have found few morning reports stateside. Questioning the various souvenirs that he got and where he got them. It also came with 2 cloth AAF maps about French Indo China (1944).   Thanks, Hayden

Bringing this old thread up from the grave lol! Just got this ike in with this exact patch from the vets daughter this weekend .
