Description
30/10/1945. During World War II, Ike received requests for him to send one of his sleeve patches as a souvenir. He never seems to have had one on hand, but instead sent a printed color facsimile patch, with a description of its meaning below the image, and which he signed above the description. The description makes clear that the sword on the insignia “represents avenging justice by which the enemy power will be broken in Nazi-dominated Europe”. The black background represents Nazi oppression, and the rainbow above is emblematic of hope.Miss Martha Wiedermann was one of those who wrote asking for a patch. Eisenhower responded by sending her this printed color facsimile patch, signed above the description. The envelope is still present, postmarked October 30, 1945, just after hostilities ceased. Affixed to a light board.This is just the second Eisenhower sleeve patch we have carried in all these years. The other Ike had sent to his brother.
