Help with WWII patch

[mog4jc]

Can anyone identify this WWII patch?

Out of curiosity, are you positive this is from WWII? Looks a little new to me, but I could be wrong.

If you don't get an answer here, you might want to post this to the militaria board, which can be found somewhere under "categories".

This seller listed it as a WWII Anti-Aircraft Army patch, but you will have to do some research to confirm:

Definitely WWII. I found them all together in my uncles estate with all of his war paraphernalia. Everything is in this like new pristine condition including his uniform.
