Linasl Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Greetings All. I have a badge that I believe is Finnish Military, but I am not sure. I would appreciate AS MUCH information about this medal as possible, particularly if it IS a Finnish Miltary badge, was it issued during WWI or WWII, what was it awarded for (or is it a Regimental Badge), etc. Every tidbit of information will be useful. I have attached a Low Resolution photo of the medal here on the forum, but I have two High Resolution Medals on PhotoBucket, at the following link: http://s752.photobuc...inland%20Badge/ Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. Take care. Linas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
