USMC 1st Marine Division subdued OD Top Shelf! PATCH 1st MarDiv Marines Premium!

Description: Attention all Marines and Marine Corps patch enthusiasts! Here's a FINE example of a subdued olive-drab unit logo patch for First Marine Division. During WWII, Marines actually wore these as a shoulder sleeve insignia. The practice was discontinued in 1947, but the patches are still worn on all manner of off-duty civilian caps and clothing as novelty items. (This, of course, is not a WWII patch, but a modern reproduction.) NOTE: This is absolutely the best example I’ve seen of a subdued olive-drab 1st MarDiv patch! Embroidery is top-quality, with crisp, clear lettering and perfect stars. Pricier, perhaps, but well worth it! For the new ACU subdued version, please Visit my eBay Store! There you'll also find other full-color and subdued 1st MarDiv patch listings with "Vietnam", "Korea", "Persian Gulf", "Iraq", and of course "Guadalcanal" emblazoned on the numeral "1". 1st Marine Division has a long, distinguished list of battle honors, beginning with WWII where they earned the famous GUADALCANAL blaze! They have continued their proud history from the mountains of Korea, to the jungles of Vietnam, all the way to the dust of Desert Storm! Division is based at Camp Pendleton, CA. Recent Decades: Of course, 1st Marine Division made history once again in the hard-fought battles of Operation Iraqi Freedom! In 2003, as the ground combat component of I MEF, 1st MarDiv led the charge into Iraq and up the Tigris River in the east toward Baghdad. Following that, subordinate units rotated in and out of Iraq, and some fought in the battle for Fallujah! This is a NEW and UNUSED patch. It is NOT a war relic but a recent manufacture item! Full-embroidered with merrowed edge plastic heat-sealed backing. Color is a very “olive” shade of olive drab. See ruler in photo for size comparison. Flat fee for shipping is $3.00. Semper Fi! Thanks for looking! Still haven't found the patch you're seeking? Please Visit my eBay Store for the best selection of USMC patches on the web! Agonizin' Reappraisal "Neat stuff."

Buyers can now pay with credit cards, debit cards, and gift cards — as well as Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and PayPal Credit. US buyers pay $3.00 for packaging and US Postal Service Ground Advantage shipment. Will combine shipping on multiple items purchased. Add $0.50 for each additional item, and please pay with a single payment after all purchases have been completed. (If unsure how to combine payment, please request an invoice, and I will combine the shipping charges for you.) No International Shipping for This Item Contacting Me: Click "Ask a question" link above to make initial contact, and I will respond in kind using the “eBay Messaging” forum. Please monitor your e-mail and/or eBay "Messages" tab for my response. I'll share my e-mail address in the response, and you are welcome to communicate with me via e-mail at that point if you wish. (Your e-mail address will only be used for response to questions or transactions. I have no interest in sending unsolicited advertising, and will not share your contact info with anyone.) I try to respond within 24 hours, but hope you understand I do have a life outside eBay, and may not always be so prompt. And please take into account weekends and traditional US holidays. Messages communicating info about a listed item are appreciated ..... but may not get response quite as fast as a message that requires immediate answer. I do have to prioritize every now and then. ;-) Packaging & Reliability: My flat-fee shipping structure covers cost of packaging and postage, and is a best-guess estimate for size and weight of items. It's not an exact science. (The flat fee is still significantly less than my actual cost for postage.) Items ship in zip-closure poly bags to protect from moisture. Items ship as trackable USPS Ground Advantage parcels within the US. In my experience, the track record of US Postal Service delivery within the US is practically 100% reliable. I may at my discretion choose insurance for shipments of a certain value. But the best insurance you can have is to make sure you provide a current and correct postal delivery address, and to check your mailbox regularly. Items ship within 1 business day of receiving payment. Check my feedback for satisfied customer testimonials! Feedback: I always post feedback after a completed transaction and always appreciate feedback from satisfied buyers. Normally takes me only a day or two, but sometimes I get behind. Please be patient. Also, if you are dissatisfied in any way, please contact me before posting negative. Maybe there's a misunderstanding, or something we can work out. Return Policy: "No Returns Accepted" is my designated policy, unless an item has a defect or was misrepresented. I go to great lengths to describe each item honestly and accurately, and there’s a ruler in each photo for size comparison. I ask that you be sure of your decision before buying. Please read the description entirely and carefully examine the photo. Ask questions prior to bidding. I try to respond to e-mail inquiries within 24 hours. Please resolve any questions or doubts prior to purchasing. My Expectations: Buyer’s on-file E-mail address is valid, and checked regularly. Buyer's confirmed ship-to address is correct and current for postal delivery. Payment (or communication indicating buyer’s intentions) within three (3) business days is appreciated. If no response, a reminder invoice is sent. If I don't hear from a buyer — in any form — after more than ten (10) business days, a case may eventually be filed with eBay’s Resolution Center to recover the Final Value Fee (eBay’s commission) on a sale not completed. In the case of an auction, this usually results in the item being re-listed. :-( Bottom line: Please contact me if there are circumstances in which you cannot comply with above expectations.
