We are an authorized, direct-from-the-publisher retailer of NEW books. Our titles are ON HAND and available for immediate shipping. Table of Contents: Page 1 - Page 2 Our Notes: Some of you may be familiar with Barry Stein's comprehensive encyclopedia, "US Army Patches, Flashes and Ovals", which we carry in stock. The encyclopedia covers officially approved patches from both active and inactive units, patches approved for local wear, as well as many unauthorized patches. The full encyclopedia also includes a snapshot profile of each unit. This smaller, 98 page book contains ONLY the color patches and the identifying caption underneath, but does not include the background information and snapshot profile found in the full edition of the encyclopedia. This is strictly a "color photo & ID" book, but we believe collectors and dealers may find it useful to have this to carry with them to military shows and in the car for quick identification, since it is a good deal less heavy than the full encyclopedia. Publisher's Description This book contains the largest collection of U.S. Army cloth Insignia ever assembled into one book! Over 3600 American Army Patches, in full color, featuring Shoulder Patches, Tabs, Pocket Patches, Beret Flashes, Airborne Background Ovals and Commemoratives. Includes sections on Special Forces Recon Teams, Airborne Units, Rangers, Army Air Force Squadrons and the U.S. - German Labor Service.
