Description: This is an original WWII American GHQ Reserve patch set. Both patches are in great condition. One is a regular GHQ patch while the other has the more desirable O.D. border. This is a 100% period patch set with cut edge and are made of cotton not synthetic. They pass a black light test. You can see from my photos of the back of the patches that they have a nice white back. This offering is for two patches. Note: The photos represent an example of the patch you will receive as I have several of these patches and they are all in the same condition so there is no need to photograph each patch. The GHQ Reserve shoulder sleeve insignia was worn by members of the 506th and 501st PIR of the (101st Airborne) during Training. The 506th PIR wore this patch, during their basic training at Camp Toccoa, GA. Additionally, the 501st PIR also wore this patch while at Toccoa and Ft. Benning, for jump training. This patch was replaced by the Airborne Command SSI in 1943. Also,The 87th Mountain Infantry Regiment at Ft Lewis, WA wore this patch in 1941- 43 until it was joined by the 86th Regiment and became the 10th Mountain Infantry Div. in 1943 at Camp Hale, CO.
