bars (Rifle and Pistol). The second award has a plain flat surface with a single suspension bar for Rifle. The last award
denotes a pistol expert.
The patch is of felt construction. With a thick black border. This is a very early example of the type
of patches employed by the US Army. This type of patches were used in the begining stages of WWII.
Often times patches like this one are damaged by moths.
