This is just a guess and I could be steering you in the wrong direction... but that patch could have something Bikini Atoll / Atomic / Thermonuclear Bomb tests.

Yes that is the reason of patch...I'd like to know history,was it from 1946 or up to 53 or 8(the vets memory was not too good) when program ended.So you guessed correctly!!! Thanks for input!

Isn't it too artistic and colorful to be a military shoulder patch? I mean, "love the Bomb," yeah, but this is too pretty. Could it be a clothing tag, for example from an early bikini?

theater made patch...for a coming home jacket...probably glows in the dark.

the black is probably an old navy scarf...embroidered...this was done also on a trip patch...scarf embroidered, sewn into tunic...

I am going to venture a guess that this is considered an "in country" patch, meaning that it is made outside the US, in another country, for sale to a US serviceman as a souvenir.

Certainly not an official US military uniform patch.
