This is the armband that was issued in 1964. It is distinguished by lighter red twill and a white elastic strap. The border and the letters are both white. This is very similar to the 1960 armband. Like all of the armbands between 1937 and 1964, this was officially issued to the medical staff.
Reportedly Dr. Sharp again made a personal patch with a medical staff overstitched on an official jamboree patch. I have never seen this one; if you have it, please contact me.
