Current US unit patches, (for uniform / helmet cover)
Hi, mates,
do need help regarding identification of this, particular, US- patches.
Curious regarding the units, the time frame the patches were introduced, and, where, (in which countrys), the patches were worn on the uniform by the US Armed Forces.
Thx. in advance,
R.

These are all modern patches from the mid 2000's onward for the ACU, the Velcro on the back is used to attached them on to the uniform. The smaller two square patches remind me of the mini patches some units would sew onto the side of their ACH or PASGT cover, the one with the "E" in the center is in UCP which was the camo pattern used in this time period (until 2019) of these patches. I can't help you much on what units wore these, the large square with "AA" is the 82nd airborne and the scroll at the top with "Ranger" is for the 75th Ranger regiment both of which have been involved in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the oval one with the arrow pointing up is Special Operations Command. The bottom left one might be for engineers due to the castle but that's a far off guess.
The grey patches were for the US Army ACU uniform. I’m not an army man so besides the 82nd ABDIV and the ranger patch I can’t help with which particular unit they are from or where they are located. Patches, if worn on the left shoulder is their current command. If worn on the right shoulder under the US flag it denotes the command that soldier was under during a deployment classified as a “combat” deployment. Hope this helps a bit.
