George, that invitation goes for you, too.

Kindest regards,

Ah hah! So you're the culprit running around doing all these good deeds!

...and just out of curiosity how did you happen settle on these orphanages in the Caucasus since there are kids in need all over the world?

Good Morning All

George, I like your aviation example a lot. However, would you consider a different attribution? Could this possibly be from the 2nd Aero Squadron of the Caucasian Independent Army?

I didn't think that squadron ID made it to shoulder boards, so that argues against my idea. I am only speculating.

Below is a pilot's badge attributed to the 3rd Aero Squadron of the Caucasian Independent Army. The numbered piece is removable and replaceable. I suppose that's if you were transferred or merely to simplify manufacturing by working with a single large piece and adding the number as needed.

I will grant in advance that this may be a division badge, but I don't think so. BTW, I think this is an uncatalogued piece, one of my very few.

Merry Christmas to all.

Chuck
