WW2 British 21st Army Lines of Communication Patch 2

The WW2 British 21st Army Lines of Communication Patch is an original formation insignia issued during the Second World War. This cloth patch was worn by personnel responsible for the organization and maintenance of supply routes and support systems within the 21st Army Group, a major British and Commonwealth command formation established in 1943. The patch features a distinct design, typically comprising a blue lozenge with a red central stripe, symbolizing the lines of communication role. These patches were sewn onto the uniform, usually on the upper arm, to identify members associated with vital logistical and administrative functions. The 21st Army Group played a significant role in the liberation of Western Europe, and its lines of communication staff ensured the continuous movement of troops, equipment, and supplies. These patches are valued by collectors of militaria as representative artifacts of the organizational structure and operations that supported Allied military campaigns during World War II.
