    Either that or the Royal Catering Corps, Poultry Division, Squab section ! :cheeky:

    (No offence intended to our Italian members.)

    Dear all,

    FCI means: Federazione Colombofila Italiana that can be translate like Italian Pigeons Federation/Association.

    Regards,

    Marco (from Italy)

    Many thanks again for the information with regards this Italian pin,

    it belongs to a good friend of mine here in Deva and I will tell him about it.

    I find its better to ask here at GMIC if an item has a military connection, because sooner

    or later we get a member who knows about the item.

    Pity its not military but thats the way it goes sometime.

    Pity indeed - But at least it did indeed remind me of the episode in Blackadder goes Forth when the General's pet pigeon was served for dinner....and the ensuing Court Marshal!

    I asked only to edit the title of the thread once the lapel pin was identified.

    Regards,

    Jim :cheers:
