Ironside410 Posted March 13, 2016 Share #1 Posted March 13, 2016 Hello All, I saw this badge in a display at the Australian Armour and Artillery Museum in Cairns, Australia. The collection of badges was put together by an Australian WW1 veteran whilst he served on the Western Front. The badge with the shield and crossed rifles appears to be a US badge but I haven't been able to ID it. Any assistance in identifying it would be appreciated.

Ironside410 Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted March 13, 2016 Thanks for the information, I will do some research on it. Shame we will probably never know how it came to be picked up in France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
