I'm putting together a shadow box on a guy who served in the Navy during WW2. Based on the document below, can someone provide an image of the sleeve patch I should look for? Thanks! -

It is interesting that half of the men in the Yolo County Association of Veterans of the Mexican War (listed in the document above) served with the 2nd Missouri Cavalry. Really it should be 2nd Missouri "Cavalry". This unit was commanded by Sterling Price, future Confederate General, and by all accounts a pompous rump. General Kearny insisted this unit was the 2nd Missouri Volunteer Infantry. Price preferred calling them Cavalry because it sounded grander. Actually they were more like Mounted Infantry. Anyway they made up part of Kearny's Army of the West and served during the war as garrison troops at Santa Fe, NM. Many continued west to California after the war to participate in the Gold Rush. Picture of Price from the Civil War. -
