Description: This USN machine-embroidered patch measures 3" by 2.8", used condition. Operating in the North Atlantic neutrality patrol before the United States entered World War II, DesRon 2 ships formed the screen of Yorktown’s Task Force 17, departing Norfolk for the Pacific in December. In 1942, the squadron continued in carrier escort duty with individual ships participating in the Battles of the Coral Sea (where Sims was lost), of Midway (where Hammann was lost), the torpedoing of Wasp (where O’Brien was lost), the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands and the final Battle of Guadalcanal, 14–15 November 1942 (where Walke was lost). Thus, one or more of them were present at the sinking of all four US carriers lost in 1943, but the squadron was reduced to five ships, Morris, Anderson, Hughes, Mustin and Russell. A valuable addition to your military memorabilia collection. Worldwide combined shipment is welcome to save you money. Please visit my EAZYCOLLECTIBLES Store for more great war items.
