When I was in the USAR, I didn't really know anything about the 83rd's history. I didn't learn about the 83rd Infantry Division until years later, the WW2 history of the unit is very interesting (I think). I've become something of an 83rd ID buff since then. I'm proud to have been able to wear that patch. I think the 83rd ARCOM is all but defunct now. |

This doesn't exist anymore but a lot of veterans have it on the right shoulder of the uniform hanging up in their closet.
Although there are many veterans that served in a war zone doing a job represented by this patch (including the first Army combat death in Vietnam) you will never see it on the right shoulder of any veteran's uniform.
