Gerradtgrant Posted June 16, 2016 Share #1 Posted June 16, 2016 As I have said before I am new to this and still learning. I was hoping to get some more info on this particular set i have. What do the 1 and 2 star mean? What rank was this soldier? Does the silver pin go with it. It's a screw back i can send more pics if needed feel free to ask.

Allan H. Posted June 16, 2016 Share #4 Posted June 16, 2016 I believe that those are yars of service pins for the Cub Scouts. They used to have yellow plastic disks behind them. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Ha-ha.. that is hilarious. Makes sense they are cheap feeling and I thought it was odd. Any idea on the silver pin? It's rather large and screw back Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Allan just looked at your profile. I am only a few hours away from you in Kansas city. Have any suggestions on any local places or people I could go and learn and see more medals in person? Or buy lol Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve B. Posted June 16, 2016 Share #7 Posted June 16, 2016 The large eagle insignia is a US Air Force officers hat badge. The gold bars are rank insignia for a 2nd Lieutenant in the Air Force or Army. The navy, coast guard & marines also use gold bars, but they are slightly different in appearance.

gwb123 Posted June 16, 2016 Share #10 Posted June 16, 2016 A lot of military folks got their start in the Boy or Girl Scouts. It is not unusual to find military lots with scouting insignia mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
