WWII U.S. Army Signal Corps Patches Set of Seven - Set of seven World War II U.S. Army Signal Corps shoulder sleeve insignia patches, each featuring the distinctive split-shield design with blue fleur-de-lis on the left and red fleur-de-lis on the right separated by a white chevron, all mounted on cream felt backing. These communication unit patches date to the 1940s and represent the Signal Corps, the Army branch responsible for all military communications during the war. The collection shows honest wear consistent with field use and storage over eight decades, fraying at edges, slight color fading particularly visible on the blue sections, and minor thread loss typical of wool and felt construction from this era. The patches retain strong color definition and crisp embroidery work throughout, with the fleur-de-lis symbols remaining clearly defined. Signal Corps insignia such as these are essential for collectors building authentic WWII uniform groupings or focusing on communications units, and finding seven examples together is uncommon.
