Very nice Robert!! Chain might be hard to fine though. I wonder why we see so many Traffic service gorgets, but I've never seen a flag bearers gorget posted. And I agree that RonR has a great collection!!

Regards, Mike

Just wondering but what is the number for? The wearer's ID?

[Ron Weinand]

These were worn by Traffic Educators, not flag carriers, hence the individual numbers.

I notice there is a different style of number font on the one posted by
Ron Weinand. When did this change is the one shown by Ron W an early
example

The one that Ron W shows has stamped numerals while the other examples have applied numbers.

There is also a difference in chains as a few have a round, ballpeened connecting link.
