Hello,

Can anyone tell me what this is? It about the size of an overseas cap patch. It came with a group of misc WWII items. Any help would be great. Thanks!!

"VI" = 6 in Roman numerals. US Army's VI Corps (always written in numerals) used a patch with a white "6" on a circular blue ground. There could perhaps be a link between the two? :thumbsup:

Thanks Sabre, this is what I had originally thought. And sorry for the mistyping in the title. I was hoping it would be A 6th Corps variant, but the size is really throwing me off. I would think it would be a period piece. And there is no question it was sewn on something at sometime. Hope we can figure it out! Thanks again!

Could be one of the patches used on swimming trunks to get into the base swinning pools. There are pics of a few I had in one of the threads.
