jmar Posted June 4, 2016 Share #1 Posted June 4, 2016 Hello everyone! I recently picked up this nice item on Ebay. These days focusing most of my attention on Delaware related military items, I was pleased to add it to my collection. It is very nicely made, typical screwback with single threaded post. I thought it to be some sort of NG insignia, but have had no luck in IDing it. It shows age patina and wear. If anyone has any info on this I'd greatly appreciate it! Best wishes to all, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Ragan Posted June 4, 2016 Share #2 Posted June 4, 2016 I say it's probably for ROTC at The University of Delaware. Typical layout for ROTC cap badges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMariner Posted June 5, 2016 Share #6 Posted June 5, 2016 That's right. And some as we'll see that just plain old say....ROTC. Interesting to see someone who collects all the different schools. I suspect it would be hard to do then it sounds because certain examples are rare as hens teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
