Patch Collection
This lot comprises a collection of five United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) WWII shoulder patches, alongside a selection of length of service bars. The patches showcase a variety of unit insignia, each featuring distinct designs and colours indicative of different squadrons or groups within the USAAF. These patches would have been worn on the uniforms of service members during World War II, representing their affiliation and contribution to the war effort.
Condition and Collectability
The patches exhibit signs consistent with age and use, displaying varying degrees of wear and fading. While not pristine, this wear adds to their authenticity and historical character. These patches are of interest to collectors of military memorabilia, particularly those focused on WWII aviation history. The inclusion of service bars further enhances the collection’s appeal, offering a glimpse into the individual service records of the soldiers who wore them.
