Got this on EBAY - 85th Engineer Original Pin

American Flag Armband from Normandy landings, given to me by Gene Fiducia - 631st Engineer - Light Equipment Company.

Also from Gene... Another armband.

From the Army Times Newspaper - This photo posted on December 9, 1944

Booklet from the War Years called - Give 3... Get 4!

This was in reference to the Pay Roll Savings Plan.

It's just a short booklet, so I plan on scanning all the pages some time later and placing it in a PDF file.

Well thank you Jim You told me about this armband on Ebay this afternoon and I waited until the last 4 minutes and pounced on it. Too cool!

Cool. The SP armband is a Navy Shore Patrol or the equivalent of an Army MP.

Wonder why the colors are reversed on yours? (Remember-- I know nuddin about navel militaria---nor naval, either.)

What is the last image you posted? Is that a patch or sign or just a photo of an Engineer castle??
