This is a pair of Novelty United States Marine Corps (USMC) enlisted rank insignia for a Sergeant Major (SgtMaj/E-9). The design features three chevrons over four rockers with a central star, which is the distinctive symbol for the Sergeant Major rank—the highest enlisted leadership position in the Marine Corps. These patches are rendered with green embroidery on a red (scarlet) background, the combination authorized for wear on the Marine Corps Service "A" (Alpha) green uniform coat. Measuring approximately 4-7/8" H x 2-7/8" W, these are female size patches, specifically proportioned to fit the tailored sleeves of the female service uniform. As sew-on patches, they are intended for permanent application on both uniform sleeves and are ideal for military history collectors or uniform restoration projects.
