173rd Airborne Brigade ACU Patch with AIRBORNE tab

This particular patch belongs to the 173rd Airborne Brigade. This is the "olive drab" ACU regulation version of this particular patch.This patch, as it is ACU regulation, comes with the regular Hook system on the opposite side. (Otherword, attaches to the fuzzy, or Loop, side of the velcro). At this I was relieved because there are Sewn On versions of the patch that I did not want, nor really care for.The Airborne tab is exactly as the regular Unit Patch as stated above in my description. Olive style with Hook on the reverse side.I was glad to know that these two come seperate as it may be found in the regular military clothing store on base. As you know, if you'r going for this patch, the HQ is in Italy, while some units (including my old unit, the 1-91 Cav) are located in Germany. These things are a bit hard to come by if you prefer to order outside of ranger Joes.Anyway, Just wanted to let everybody know that these things are exactly what your looking for. I wanted this personally for my black styled ruck sack that I use to stomp around in the mud, haven't had any problems. Good stuff.
