An assortment of United States Army unit insignia cloth patches, primarily in subdued olive drab and black colour schemes. The collection is housed in a blue lever-arch binder with a handwritten white label reading U.S. ARMY CLOTH PATCH COLLECTION. The patches represent a wide range of commands and divisions, including the 3rd Infantry Division, 25th Infantry Division, 18th Airborne Corps, Special Forces, 11th Air Defence Artillery Brigade, 263rd Air Defence Artillery Brigade, US Army Communications Command (NETCOM), and US Army Europe (USAREUR). The majority of the items are in the subdued style standard for the Vietnam War through to the early 2000s (OG-107 and BDU uniform eras). The patches are mounted on yellow and pink backing paper within plastic sleeves, featuring handwritten identification labels with prices in British Pounds, indicating previous consignment or sale in the United Kingdom.
