Chris Yes, I've aquired a few more pieces and found a few obscure references that may shed some light on these badges, but it's not alot of information. I'll try to write something up in the near future and post it here. Did you happen to see or find anything resembling these badge on your recent vacation? They are hard to find. I've been watching French Ebay to get a better idea of rarity. Apparently manufacturing of these badges existed to more modern times, so identifying the correct age of the badge is critical. The Drago mark and the enamel quality help to narrow down the time frame of production. Steve
