I am looking for someone with some knowledge of military insignias. My grandfather was in the 26th infantry 1st division (Blue Spaders). He is buried in the American Cemetary in Normandy.
I have some patches on my range back (US flag, etc). I would like to honor him by putting adding his shoulder patches on my range bag. I have also recently acquired an M1, the weapon he was carrying when he was killed in France on July 5, 1944 by German mortars. Not sure if putting patches on my bag would offend military persons or not. I was never in the military.
Thanks for any help that can be provided. I hope to someday take a trip to France to visit his grave.
Thanks in advance!
