Original WWII U.S. Army XXII Corps Patch – 22nd Corps Shoulder Sleeve Insignia – ETO Spearhead Design

This is an original WWII-era shoulder sleeve insignia (SSI) for the U.S. Army XXII Corps (22nd Corps), a corps-level command that served in the European Theater of Operations during World War II under the Ninth Army.

The distinctive spearhead design represents swift, aggressive offensive movement, while the central white burst suggests the corps' ability to break through enemy lines. Activated in 1944, the XXII Corps was instrumental in the Rhineland and Central Europe campaigns, and helped push Allied forces across the Rhine River and into Germany’s industrial heartland.

A striking and historically significant patch for WWII and ETO collectors.
