RichieC Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Another unknown branch insignia.One of the many types of ARMORED units - This one IMO: ARMORED TRAIN

meffert Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) It was neat seeing the armor specific M22 collar badge in wear. My understanding is that much more common from 1922 to 1935 was the "universal armor" badge which included tanks, armored cars, armored trains, etc. as seen in post 28. Here's one off an M22 in the flesh. (or cloth and metal as it were) Edited May 9, 2009 by meffert
slava1stclass Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 Gents, An extremely cool collar - Chemical Corps. Image dates to May 1933.Regards,slava1stclass

meffert Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) Never seen a chinstrap on a winter bud but now I know they existed (lest some e-expert claim any such simply must be a fantasy piece). I notice also that the star is hammer and plough...cooler still. Edited May 11, 2009 by meffert

RichieC Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Never seen a chinstrap on a bud but now I know they existed....and this one has the normal fold down ear/neck protection.
meffert Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Here's a nifty collar you haven't shown yet...aeronaut!

RichieC Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Great images, as usual Sir. It seems that this man has metallic edgings on his collar tabs.
