Ask Zuludelta, he's a treasure trove of information.
He could probably tell you what unit the symbols represent and give a history of the unit.

i believe the Red Shamrock was the insignia for the 4th army, and was deactivated sometime during the seventies.

Of course, the placement on the figure is all wrong (it's a DUI and not an SSI so it should be on the shoulder loop and not the shoulder sleeve) but that's fairly common with the ARAH toys. Recondo's could be anything, I imagine Ron Rudat intended for it to be more detailed but was obviously limited in his choice of colours and patterns. Possible candidates could be the 162nd Infantry Brigade or a reversed image of the 1st Cavalry Division shoulder sleeve insignia. Have yet to see a good close-up pic of the one on Footloose. |

Psyche-Out's reminds me a little bit of the now-defunt 13th Psychological Operations Battalion's distinctive unit insignia:

Indeed, the Psyche out logo looks a bit like that one. Oddly enough, what i've found on pictures looks like a triangle made of black lines, but the artwork on the card seems more like a solid black triangle with green lines. Thanks! I'm dizzy! Anyways, what i got so far (just in case somebody else wants them):

Damn, M_renegade... I'm doing the same thing. Trying to make some water slide templates, not sure your main goal...
I can't find Footloose's either, or Leathernecks... I'll post what I can find. |

Post away what you do, it would be cool to have a single thread will the logos on it! Btw, i've used the original designs, most logos can be found on the thread of the original artwork the sculpter used! It can't be more faithful to the source than that lol

Bringing this back to light, but I'm looking for Keel-Haul's arm patch artwork... I'll have to check the sculpter thread pics, maybe it's in there...
