[QUOTE="PanhandleGlocker, post: 3764520, member: 25311"] Firstly I’ll apologize for my idiocy on this topic since I’m not military savvy, I hope I explain correctly… I need help identifying these. Going through some of my late grandfathers things on my dads side and came across some patches. He was in the Navy and stationed in Japan in the early 1950’s. Found these patches but I’m not sure if they’re all his or if they are from another family member since I had some great uncles on my grandmothers side that were in WWII in various branches of the military. The box I was going through had a ton of pictures from his time in Japan and his ID cards but I didn’t see anything in the box that would have showed these patches were someone else’s other than my grandfathers uncle that was honorably discharged in 1924 (found his discharge papers) but they look more like USAAF than Navy, but I think his uncle was Army - I don’t really know, I should have looked at the papers closer. Thanks for any knowledge y’all can give me. I tried googling but couldn’t come up with anything. I have some patches from my other grandfather on my moms side that I will be asking about when I can find and take a picture of them also. [ATTACH type="full"]266688[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
