Tonomachi Posted December 30, 2007 Share #1 Posted December 30, 2007 I decided to take a chance on this piece as it didn't cost much ($13.50) and looked somewhat old having something to do with the US Navy. Was this a US Naval hat piece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason G Posted December 30, 2007 Share #2 Posted December 30, 2007 I believe that's a US Naval Academy rank insignia...Midshipman 1st Class (non officer). Not sure on the era, though... http://webpages.charter.net/usaihp/usnarank.html Lists USNA rank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KASTAUFFER Posted December 30, 2007 Share #3 Posted December 30, 2007 It is a USNA rank insignia for sure. Based on the bullion I would say its probably from the 20's or 30's . I posted 2 just like it in this thread: http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/ind...amp;#entry82106 Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjdevi1 Posted January 3, 2008 Share #5 Posted January 3, 2008 Yep, Its a USNA Midshipman 1st class. Could be anywhere from the WW1 period to the early 30's John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
