    Hi Robert

    There are about 6 known US made WWII variations of 502nd. There is one very similar to what is in the Kellers book on US Airborne WWII.
    The images are not good enough to really see the detail unlike the second Images.
    Maybe if you can ask for clearer and better shots of front and back, would help.
    How much is the asking price?

    Hello Phill,

    Thanks for your reaction, sorry for my late reaction.

    There was no asking price only bidding. I checked if someone was bidding on it but nobody did... and 1 hour later the patch was reserved for someone else....

    I also checked the Kellers book and it looks similar with one of the patches, the wings matches the one from Keller’s book.

    What Gwar says about the differences underneath the nose seems to be right, because this patch has a lot of black underneath the nose if you compare them with the one’s from the book.

    I think its genuine but better photos will help for sure.
