Hi Keith,
Every year I go to the Air Races in Reno. There is a company there
that
has all kinds of military memorabilia in their booth. If my memory is
correct I think it was the "Semper Phi" booth. If they don't have it
I'll bet they can get it or tell you who has it.
Unfortunately I don't have their address of phone number but
perhaps
someone on this list will see this and let you know how to get hold of
them. If not, you might be able to find them on the net with key word
"semper phi".
Good luck,

BTW, I assume you know that there was a lot more to that patch than just
a flag. Do you know the story of the "Blood Chit"?
I think they were worn in Asia more than in Europe since they were
written in Chinese.
