This finely crafted reproduction patch represents the iconic "Stubby Wing" shoulder insignia of the U.S. Army Air Forces' 8th Air Force, which played a pivotal role during World War II. Meticulously constructed on a durable felt backing, the patch features rich detailing with gold wire thread embroidery, giving it a period-authentic appearance and superior texture.
Measuring 3 inches in diameter, the design is faithful to the English-made versions that were commonly produced and worn by American bomber crews based in England during the war. The "Stubby Wing" style is notable for its more compact, rounded wing structure compared to other variants, making it a sought-after style among collectors and reenactors seeking historical accuracy.
Whether for a vintage uniform restoration, display, or reenactment purposes, this patch is considered the highest quality obtainable among reproductions, capturing the look and feel of wartime craftsmanship. An excellent addition to any WWII militaria collection. All items sold are 100% guaranteed.
