Help! Mysterious IKE Jacket Patch...
Hey all, So I recently won a 1944 dated IKE jacket on ebay, which arrived today. It's in amazingly GREAT shape, but there's a patch on it I can't ID. I've been through two extensive patch websites looking for it, but can't find it anywhere. Any idea what it is?

TACOM US Forces, Austria
Worn from: 5 February 1952 - 1955.
The colors, blue, yellow, and red represent the three basic combat arms. They symbolize an infantry fighting force screened by armed cavalry, both of which are supported by artillery.
