CHASEUSA11B Posted May 15, 2016 #1 Posted May 15, 2016 Hello everone. I was looking through my qualification badges and found one marked "sword." It is on a pin back marksman badge and beneath a clasp for "pistol-d." The only marking I found is a T on the back of both clasps. I was wondering how common these are and when they were issued. Thanks for looking.
Reforger Posted May 19, 2016 #3 Posted May 19, 2016 The sword clasp was an official qualification clasp used from 1922 until 1941. I would consider it rare compared to the standard ones you come across a lot such as rifle, pistol, etc..
