    Request for pin/badge identification help

    Greetings,
    I received this pin/badge between 1962 and 1964 from a high school friend whose father served in Europe/Germany during WWII. I've kept it for these many years and over a dozen moves.
    I would be grateful for any and all help in identifying this piece. I have reviewed hundreds of photo on this forum but have not seen this example yet.

    Thank you very much,
    Tom

    It's a badge for Italian personnel who had undergone military training in Germany.

      HPL2008:

      Thank you very much. I wondered about the presence of the fasces. Your information makes the reason very clear. Thanks very much for your reply and the links the other threads.

      My next step will be to go to the Italian and European Axis Allies Forum to see if this badge is genuine. I would also very much appreciate your opinion on its authenticity.

      Again, thank you for your reply, which is a perfect example of why these forums are such a resource for folks like me.
      Sincerely,

      Tom
