    unknown badge

    Hello,

    Greetings,

    It looks very similar to a unit crest of theU.S. Army 28th Inf reg, "The Black Lions"

      Thanks Fred, do you happen to have one to post? and to compare?

      Then it would be a post war/occupation insignia? although this pin looks older too me..

        I am thinking about the Belgian (flemish direction) if it looks German maybe Langemark?

            I'm also thinking as Belgian /flamish badge. See Angolia NR.2 belgian volunteers have a Schield like it with FLANDERS on the top.

              I have those books and welcome all opinions,
              but this is no Belgium lion i.m.o. and if it was it should have a yellow background.

                Whatever it is, it is very nice looking item!

                PS: The problem is, that a lot of similar symbols existed. Where did you find it?

                  Hi Friends
                  your lion looks like a wolf...
                  Like the "BĂȘte du GĂ©vaudan". Post it on a french forum
                  Cheers
