This “High Eagle” helmet shield style badge is from the late 1800’s:

 

Bonjour.

 

My participation

Very nice, solcarlus! With the five trumpets/bugles in the center this indicates the Fire Chief rank, as you may know.

Bonjour Cobra.

 

This is absolutely not my collection area, which is the US WWI. I got this badge with firefighter helmets in a DRMO in Germany, there are many.

Kind regards. 

 

Ce n'est absolument pas mon domaine de collection, qui est l'US WWI. J'ai récupéré cet insigne avec des casques de pompier dans un DRMO en Allemagne, il y a de nombreuses.

cordialement. 

Recent visit with my daughter, her husband and my grandsons generated a lot of smiles when they said they wanted to go with me to dig through the Goodwill Dump bins. She does clothes through Posh Mark so the apple doesn't fall far from the tree as my passion for going "junking" has rubbed off on her. Got some great used toys for the grandsons and truly a score for me when I found a PATCH at the bottom of one of the bins. Fairchild AFB is located just up the road from the store. DOUBLE BONUS!!!

Nice score, EE87! You don’t find, if you don’t look, right? 

 

I have NO idea what that central design is.

It appears to be a bad attempt at a coyote with a long tongue hanging out of its mouth maybe?

Well, that was a better guess than mine (I thought it looks like a thing with wings … go figure).

 

Had to look this one up. It’s near Valdosta, Georgia.

In my US Army FD badge collection, I have one from Savanna Ordnance Depot but my question is this:  What does P.G. ILL. stand for?  I've looked up the area but I've not found any reference to "P. G.".  If anyone has information about what the letters stand for, please let me know.  Thanks.

Thanks for posting this badge. Unfortunately, you’ve got me stumped, too. Maybe another reader can help.
