Tom Y Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Except for the ?se being turned 90 degrees it's a fairly common style of repair, although the first identifiable factory job I've seen. There's got to be more to it than that, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Stahlhut Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 Unit flagpole?Wooohoooo! yep, it's a 'filial' cross. think about all of those patriotic postcards with the banners and streamers and EKs dangling. think about all those parade photos of not only during the war, but also the ones of the vet vereins in the 20s and 30s.. these are hard to find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
