[Simon F]

Thanks for the comments

The number on the Augis are stamped not engraved, does this mean they have been doctored?

Hi,

Simon check the size of the number on the augis one, if it's more than 2,5 mm...

Thanks for that valuable info. A little one armed paper hanging here but it looks to be no greater than 2.5 mil My doubts are that these numbers are stamped/punched rather than engraved and that the depth of the stamping makes the numbers seem larger than they are, if you catch my meaning?!

Hello all,

On Chris's advice, I'll post this here in case anyone has any additional input on this wing. This one does not have the "LES INSIGNES MILITAIRES" above the Drago name and address... Any thoughts?

Sorry for the late return to this tread but I recently picked this pair of DRAGO wings the front has been polished back to the brass base metal and below is an unumbered of DRAGO marked wings I think they were produced recently.

 

And the fronts

This is one of my brevets... the number dates it at 1948

I have just brought this brevet. The number dated at 1947... but the actual age of the brevet I'm not sure. As it is missing the [LES] before [INSIGNES MILITAISES] Like one the above brevet numbered 024420.

This is my own brevet. From when I was in 2eREP, 3e Cie. in 1989-1994. For my Promo, I did 6 night jumps. Because of the inclement weather, before deploying to Djibouti.

Here is some drago variation from 1945 till the 60s... the two on the right are restrikes, the one at the top right is not marked as such....

Hello all! Great info on here. I have had this Cambodian badge over 20 yrs now. Just now decided to sell it. Needing a bit more info if possible. It seems to be a low issue number. Is there any way to find out who it was issued to? My friend who traded it to me said you can find this out with the number. Thank you in advance.
