Original WWII U.S. Army Ground Forces Patch – Shoulder Sleeve Insignia – Felt Back – National Colors

This is an original World War II–era U.S. Army Ground Forces (AGF) shoulder patch, worn by soldiers undergoing combat training or serving under the AGF command structure from 1942 onward. It features the iconic red, white, and blue horizontal stripes — the national colors — embroidered on a tan felt backing.

This patch represents one of the most vital support systems of the war: the training and organization of U.S. Army combat units before they were deployed overseas. Worn by thousands of soldiers preparing for war, this insignia is an authentic piece of WWII history.
