I picked this up the other day for $3. I think I've ID'd it as a Petty Officer Second Class, Aviation Machinists Mate. It's dated 1942. Can anyone confirm that it's legit? How did I do, /k/?
Here's a picture of the back. Says 1942, and stitching is done through the bars so it doesn't show on the other side.
yeah it's legit and you're right about po2 and aviation machinist mate. i guess it's ok
Found it in a random antique shop, didn't even know they had patches. If it's real, what are some ways I can preserve it to keep it in good condition?

Thanks man! Dunno why, but I think it's pretty neat. Sort of a piece of history I guess.

I think you're a little confused on the concept of stolen valour anon. I am interested in the piece as a collectors item, nothing more. Just a piece of my country's history.
