The Red Cross is typical of the style used by the Navy, pre 1948. But the eagle is not “Navy”. So, any guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t look like it had any or was designed to have any. It’s something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutiger83 Posted September 3, 2022 Share #7 Posted September 3, 2022 I looked thru my Call to Duty women's reference book to see if it might be one of the women's groups but no luck. I would be interested to see if you figure this one out. ...Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navyman Posted September 3, 2022 Author Share #9 Posted September 3, 2022 The eagle is similar to the us coastal and geodetic survey eagle, but that eagle sits on a globe for rating badges anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W Warrant officers would wear pin on insignia, Officer style insignia. I’m thinking this is some civilian thing. Either for some sort of volunteer organization or costume: kids coat thing.

navyman Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share #11 Posted September 5, 2022 I am wondering if this is ww1 era red cross or field ambulance or something in that field. I don't even know if we have that stuff on this site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Minton Posted January 4, 2023 Share #13 Posted January 4, 2023 Looks a little like 1938 pattern USPHS Nurse (left), but I don’t believe it is USPHS related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wharfmaster Posted January 4, 2023 Share #14 Posted January 4, 2023 My guess, Army Transport Service Hospital Ships. The ATS had an eagle with shield in the center. W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigsaye Posted January 4, 2023 Share #15 Posted January 4, 2023 The eagle looks like a US Army Colonel rank device. But I doubt it has anything to do with that. It just feels civilian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
