    We've had these patches hanging around for years and I was wondering if anyone could help me identify which units and branches of service they went to. I've scoped out ebay, google images and some other militaria websites specializing in patches without success (saw a couple, but they were in lots and not individually identified).

    Also, how can one certify that they are originals and not repros without provenance?

    Thanks for any assistance provided.

      Round Blue patch w/gold wings & white star = Army AirCorps Class A patch
      Square Blue patch w/gold eagle & white star = US 2nd Army AirCorps patch
      Diamond Red patch w/globe & eagle = USMC 3rd Aircraft Wing.
      Scottvez will be able to confirm or correct.
