OSS commando at Vercors

On June 29 1944 a group of 15 OSS members jumped on Vercors plateau in order to help Free French underground. Movie clip is showing official ceremony honoring OSS commando survivor Sgt Delmar Calvert awarded of French Legion d'honneur at Vassieux en Vercors on May 8 2005.

I have a question: at the end of the video there is a "T" patch (for the Texas unit) and with the title of this video it seems that there was some connection with the OSS and the Texas unit. Can you please confirm this for me? I am part of a WWII Living History group and we represent the Texas unit but I have been wanting to display more OSS material and if this is true then any information you can help me with would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, to the Americans who sacrificed so much for France.

Vraiment bravo à vous! Tres bel hommage aux OG qui sautèrent sur le France occupé pour armer, instruire et epauler les mauquisards!
