dpcsdan Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share #231 Posted December 23, 2018 While collecting USN badges, over the years, I've picked up a few Army Military Police badges that caught my fancy. This Fort Knox badge is hallmarked, but double stamped and difficult to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topdcnut Posted November 18, 2019 Share #247 Posted November 18, 2019 ACORN 49 (Saipan) Police Petty Officer Badge in Sterling. This is interesting, ACORN units had a life span from being assembled and trained and about 4 months after invasion when they were replaced with a CASU of PATSU. Was this from a person assigned to the Acorn training base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpcsdan Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share #248 Posted November 18, 2019 A re-purposed badge, from Police Petty Officer to MAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
