Good afternoon Didier,

spontaneous first impression, a military patch from Israel, but probably totally wrong..?

Google picture search: "military patch israel"
Link: https://www.google.com/search?q=militar ... 60&bih=759

Good luck for your further research...

Mark, my first impression looking at the patch, was the "Davidstern" / "Star Of David""

We are on the right track, probably..? :milwink:

* Stay away a few meters from the computer screen, and the "Star Of David" is visible... :wink:

yeah, and maybe upside down as well. I'll still searching for this exact patch. have it on several FB groups dedicated to military cloth and patches of all eras and countries, but as Hans1906 stated above to start the comments, looks like Israel based. One guy said it was an ROTC patch hmmm will continue to search

Hmm ionteresting. On the groups that I had posted this on, no one had a clue, but most all, as we did here, say it was upside down. Strange that this patch would be civilian but in subdued version, Maybe lets check out his ID as well. for future refer.?
