Allogagan 10 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 To identify a OA patch I purchased from a junk shop about 10 years ago. http://www.allogagan.net/oa_patch/unknown_oa_patch.jpg here is a scan of it to help. If anyone can help thanx if not maybe suggest a place I can try. I already checked OAimages.com with no luck. Link to post Share on other sites
nmstowe 10 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I know that our district has a booklet on all the patches they have had over the years. Does your district have the same available? You can possibly check with National OA site and see what they have to say. Link to post Share on other sites
scoutldr 726 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 The turtle is the totem of Unami Lodge #1 in Pennsylvania, but that's not a positive ID. Link to post Share on other sites
baschram645 10 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Go to www.gilwell.com You can up load your scan to an area called whatisit that allows others to see it so that they can identify the patch for you. YIS Link to post Share on other sites
Allogagan 10 Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Thanx all your posts have been useful. No we don't have a booklet (wish we did for my Lodge but my Lodge never considered it.) Link to post Share on other sites
moxieman 11 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 You can also try: http://www.oaimages.com aka the online OA Bluebook Guide Unfortunately, there is no way to search by lodge totem at this time. Many lodges have the turtle for its totem. The patch you have a scan of uses the same style turtle as found on many Unami 1 patches/flaps. However, I did not see anything under Unami that was similar to the patch you picked-up. This site also has a "Whats It" section. Good luck and when you do learn what this is, please share it with the rest of us. Link to post Share on other sites
