US 1st CAV Division patch?

The Brigade La Fayette currently serve under the command of the US 1st CAV. Probably was bestowed to him for some reason so he's wearing it.

Per tradition right sleeve patch are personal and can represent any unit you've served under (from fire team to "army"), even if most of the time it's your current unit.

It's rare to see foreign ones but that's not shocking either.
