Looks like a good non-boots (so made for soldiers not collectors) version from WWII to me

+1. Great condition too as moths really like this one.

This is the unit issued version of the patch and 100% original WWII vintage. As stated previously, it is in gorgeous condition.

My dad had one just like it.  There was unit stationery, too.
