Who can help? Army uniform insignia

[canes7]

One of my wife's relatives was sharing a family members jacket, paperwork and more. As the story goes many of the insignia were removed from the jacket and not put back in the correct spot. Hopefully I can find someone who can put the puzzle back together. She's piled a bunch of stuff up in a shadow box.

Cool. The only thing I can offer is the shoulder cord goes on the right side.

Nice to see this happening..I was shocked to see a young lady carry all her Father's Formal green uniform into the Surplus store..I guess she had no use for it..I started to ask her about buying his Helmet..But she looked sad enough?

Inside the cord from 12 O'clock counting clockwise...

Bronze Star... WWII Victory... Europe-Africa-Mediteranian Campaign... Purple Heart


Outside of the Cord from left to right...

Unknown to me... 101'st Patch... American Campaign


As far as the rest go...

The 4 stars in the blue field sure looks like the MOH, except it's missing a star. The "Curahee" pin looks like it would have been worn on the Cunt Cap and is the Regimental Insignia of the 506th Airborne Infantry Regiment. The Patch on the right was a 506th pocket patch. The small Red, White and Blue oval looks like another 506th Patch with a set of Jump Wings pinned to it?


Anyway, check out this website Sir, and great work to the Family for saving this great piece of history.
