A collector's gem from the dawn of airmobile warfare! Up for sale is a genuine 11th Air Assault Division (Test) shoulder patch (SSI) complete with the rare, separate "AIR ASSAULT" tab.

Once proven, the division's assets were absorbed into the famed 1st Cavalry Division. Featuring a classic flat "Cut Edge," this two-piece set is in pristine, unissued condition.
