Widowmaker

A solider assigned to 3/502nd INF of Ft. Campbell Ky. Signified by a patch of a skull with bat wings hanging from a parachute.

One piece of "equipment" developed in this period that has accompanied the 502nd into combat ever since was the round winged-skull patch known variously as "bat wings", the "death's head", and "The Widowmaker".
