patches Posted August 31, 2024 #1 Posted August 31, 2024 As we see and HZ below the Crossed Rifles, not a clue, how bout you?
atb Posted August 31, 2024 #2 Posted August 31, 2024 Howitzer. From when Infantry regiments had howitzer elements as part of their organization.
patches Posted September 1, 2024 Author #3 Posted September 1, 2024 And right you are atb, should of known that, I was thinking it may have been some ROTC disc, HZ being the initials of a school. Here a Gilt 20s one.
JohnK83882 Posted September 1, 2024 #4 Posted September 1, 2024 20s style collar disk but with flintlocks instead of bolt rifles. Interesting.
JohnK83882 Posted September 1, 2024 #5 Posted September 1, 2024 HZ could stand for headquarters zone.

Uniforms of the Day Posted September 8, 2024 #8 Posted September 8, 2024 atb is right on the money. Absolutely howitzer.
