Enclosed are pictures of a friends fathers USMC tunic who was a amphibious tank driver during WWII. The FMC tank patch is hard to come by. Also cool picture of his father.

The reason the patch is hard to come by is this is an armor tank patch due to the 75mm gun most of the amphibious tanks just had machine guns mounted.
