Happy Birthday US Navy      

It should be fine in the controlled atmosphere of your house.

"Knocking Out the Moros"   GPO out cleared out many of their posters and older publications some time ago. I have an older copy of "Gatlings to the Assault" that I had framed and hangs on the wall in my front parlor.   "Army in Action" Series  21-48 https://history.army.mil/Publications/Publications-Catalog/Department-of-the-Army-Poster-Set-US-Army-in-Action-Series/

It's definitely WWII vintage but I'm not sure if it's issued. I have a brushed wool type like that too.

I'm sure they were but in what quantities I don't know. Supply issues prevented lots of troops from getting cold-weather gear so many came from the red cross and from home in this case.

Happy Birthday America     USS RAMSEY (FFG-2)  

Thank you ASMIC2971 . That is great info on this patch and it also makes sense,since the 19th Cav. had no crest, so this unit used an armor triangle and added the letter and a number to designate their unit.Thank you - I really appreciate your effort.

Great catch Patches!

Wishing everyone a great 250th Independence Day!   Here are the photos of the Mollus Medal.   Thank you again for any thoughts on how to protect this item, or any other insights!   Best regards to all of you, Annie in Utah

You could easily put this collection together with a small bit of patience for well under $600. IMO the best ones of the lot are these enlisted dress collar emblems. Not necessarily rare, but turn up far less often than the rest.
