U.S. Forces Trieste

Worn from:

Late 1945 - 10 February 1947.

The insignia was adopted by the Trust Command in
May 1947 and worn by officers and enlisted men to
identify American troops in Trieste, a deep water
port city of northeastern Italy. This command had
a mission to uphold the principles of the Free
Territory of Trieste in line with policies sent down
by the Council of the United Nations. The occupation
of Trieste by elements of the Eighty-eighth Infantry
Division is represented by the four-leaf clover, which
was adapted from the division's insignia. The white
fleur-de-lys, set upon a red shield, is adapted from
the coat of arms of Triest

U. S. Forces Trieste (TRUST) were established in the fall of 1947 with the advent of the Italian Peace Treaty and ran until 1954. I know because I was there until June, 1950.
