Description

The 7th Infantry Division’s combat record spans over a century of American military history. After limited action in World War I, the Division’s true test came during WW2, where it fought in some of the Pacific’s harshest and most strategically vital battles. From the frozen Aleutian Islands to the storm-lashed beaches of Leyte, the 7th earned a reputation for grit, sacrifice and determination. This legacy saw them through both World Wars and the Korean War, following which they were deactivated. Reactivated in the modern era, the 7th Infantry Division continues to serve with distinction to this very day.

This original surplus shoulder sleeve insignia – approximately 6cm in diameter – features the unmistakable black hourglass of the division, within a vivid red circle, all outlined in black embroidered stitching. Worn proudly by those who served, this patch marks the wearer as a member of one of the most battle-hardened in the US Army’s history.

Perfect for military enthusiasts, collectors or reenactors, this patch serves as a bold symbol and link to the legacy of the Hourglass Division. Add it to your collection today!
