18th airborne corps. Not exactly the most hardcore patch but I always thought it was pretty cool. This is my patch of choice for my right sleeve.

The 6th ID patch. You were a "Jumping Jew" if you were Airborne.
"Screaming Hebrew" if you were a leg

I wear the one on the left. It is the 525th Military Intelligence from my first deployment. I didn't have the second one but a team from 10th MTN wore it. It is the approved patch from the the 10th MTN Long Range Surveillance Detachment. They deployed with us to iraq. Very few people even knew about the unit. It is a small group of scouts that were on jump status at Drum. They had berets and all as they were the only airborne unit on post there. They were deactivated in 05 I believe. It is the more unique combat patch I have ever seen.

I was with a couple scouts in 1/71 CAV that came over from LRS-D. So I saw that patch quite often.

The unit actually deactivated in late 04. The unit was comprised of Inafantryman with a small contingent of Commo personnel. You are correct that we were the only unit in an active airborne status on Ft Drum.

Got a lot of Unit Patches but only one I guess would qualify since I rode it TAD in Desert Storm and as Ships Company in Desert Strike and that would be the Razorback of USS Arkansas CGN-41.

My favorite Unit Patch was the TRADOC patch I wore when assigned to Ft McClellan. However, my 2nd Armored Division (FED) is still an awesome unit patch!

Honestly it depends on the day... my most prized combat patch is my 18th MP Bde. I origionally earned it in the invasion of Iraq. I served with a lot of good peopl in that tour and we lost a few Soldiers.

I also wear my USASFC patch as I was able to do some unique things with 10th Group when I was assigned to them.

I am also authorized to wear 1AD, 3ID, 43d MP
