WWII US Navy Naval Armed Guard Veteran Bullion Patch

Featured Replies

I found this bullion patch for a WWII U.S. Navy Armed Guard Veteran and thought it was well made so I'm posting it here on the forum. I can't find anything like it online and can't tell what vintage it is but it seems to have some age. It measures @ 3 3/4" in width and comes with 3 clutchback pins to the back so that it could be pinned onto a blazer I am assuming.

Just curious if anyone is familiar with this veteran's patch and can place a date to it..

I have not seen one of these before but it appears to be fairly recent construction to me. Similar to the Pakistan made bullion patches in my eyes, so not too old I would think.

Agreed its Pakistani made.

You can e-mail CA Lloyd, the chairman of the Armed Guard Association and ask him about it. It's from the association, so he would undoubtedly know (he's been running it for just about ever...)
