June 5Jun 5 #1 Again, Seller claims this is a 714th Bomb Squadron 448th Bombardment Group Patch from WWII. I happen to have a great Uncle who was was a bombardier in the 714th and lost over France in late June of 1944. Accordingly, I have a few patches from the 714th, and this does not match. Maybe it is a one off for a communications specialist? I messaged the seller and was told "[his] description was based on the information he provided" from a long time collector offloading their patch collection. Thoughts? If it was 714th, I wouldn't mind having it. Neat patch even if it isn't 714th. https://www.ebay.com/itm/188330446581?_skw=448th+bomb&itmmeta=01KTBZNHA7CTYBT3WN0MQH7NW3&hash=item2bd95e8ef5:g:Tj8AAeSwpHBp8px4&itmprp=enc%3AAQALAAAA8GfYFPkwiKCW4ZNSs2u11xC9Iri1ebg6NzNM6jA9WrfBGgq4tC5PR27GuEjy6%2Fbf4q6X2yhTwSDXc%2BmDTTGnKJWJlAouqKYzQdgizoCMWLbkve%2FVd5jvR8UlpUsghBv7FC1OQFRvireUHdBYBD2SDf1iwqsnqcMT7oT97mmyCLQD5hoaheKFpPdXvCUWkuJ08M4tPNjxwblIwuwRBwrBQOXbCYSA0MUpbehFUXh%2F2fsRC%2FvLN7m0eDgmyIYLoI4exosV%2FAPkZMYUtTUpoFNt7yIwhSMkVynX5xMUfd25iFhenkItqk0JLdOmJ6ZlebtRvQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6yV1v_SZw
June 5Jun 5 #2 Very doubtful that this is a 714th BS patch. It has popped up as a mystery patch a few times, but to the best of my knowledge has never been identified. I have one as well that came in a large signal corps collection, but the previous collector was never able to confirm an ID.
July 6Jul 6 #4 "Possibly"a Communciations unit seeing as the Indian is sending smoke signals on the patch
