WW2 US Airborne Pathfinders Badge Blue Background Uncut
American WW2 paratroopers pathfinder qualification badge.
This pathfinders badge has a blue wool background which is the first version.
This is made as it would have been issue which is a larger background than would have been fixed onto a tunic, in the collectible world it is reffered to as an "Uncut" version.
Later pathfinder badges where made with a black background.
This was worn on the lower sleeve on the A class dress uniform.
When worn on the tunic the blue background was usually trimmed closer to the shape of the flaming torch badge.
Quality hand made reproductions, these are made by using the original methods of using hand machines rather than computerised embroidery machines, so they have a better feel and touch to them.
