This is not a military badge but I would appreciate any information that you can give me about the badge.

Means "interpreter".

I believe it was issued for the 1957 International Youth Festival.

Nice example of 50's Soviet badgemaking with a nice, clear Moscow Mint mark on the reverse. Not too desirable but probably pretty rare.

Gentlemen,

Thanks for your responses. It does appear to be associated with the 1957 World Youth Festival in Moscow.

Regards,

Gordon
