I see we are missing a few listed on Chris Creamer's site and there are some nice closeups of the patch designs.

One nice thing about our own list that is lacking with Mr. Creamer's site is the experience that our members have shared as far as historical significance, time period worn, location on uniforn, and the type of uniform (home/road)that the patch was used on.

If anyone can verify this type of information for any patch that is missing from our list, please post the detail to this thread.

Thanks in advance.
