Gunjinantiques Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Sometimes a piece is just too beautiful not to share with everyone. This badge was from a 1936 naval special maneuvers and the owner was a participant aboard the Fubuki-class destroyer named Ayanami. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_dest..._Ayanami_(1929) The gold kanji on the front reads: "INVINCIBLE ARMADA" Not exactly true, but cool nonetheless!
