peter monahan Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Tom It appears to be a Polish officers cap badge, worn on the peaked cap of the WWII period. (Army badges and Insignia of WW2, Guido Rosignoli)Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shako_uk Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 I've had this for a few years but have no idea of the period or what type of headgear it belongs on.It has a vey pronounced curve. Could someone enlighten me? Maybe a scan of one in situ?This is the "standard" Polish cap and beret badge during WW2. It was worn by all ranks fo the Army, though the Air Force nd Navy badges also incorporated this eagle.From about 1958, the crown was removed from the eagle, but since 1990 it has been reinstated.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
