What is the best reference book on U.S. military patchs if you had to choose just one? Thank You, Charlie

Good question!
There are few we use regularly at the shop, as none cover all aspects of all the different eras. My favorite is one my Grandfather used when he collected patches during WW2, but it obviously has limited info. National Geographic had a nice section in the 1944 issue that covered a lot of patches & insignia.

I'll post the titles of the ones we have. Right now I just know them as "the green one, the white one, etc"

Here is a decent website that also had some good information:
