    Original ID tag (Identity disc) of the Volunteer soldier's 'LE CALVEZ Paul' from the military class 1911.
    'EV 1911' = Volunteer class 1911. This soldier did not wait the official age to do his compulsory military service. ORIGINAL?

    Some of the recipients of the "fourragère a titre personel" weared these mini fourragères.

    They were tolerated, but "non-reglementaire".

     

    The fourragères made from sillk, having the extra loop, were called "fourragere fantaisie".

    Only Cotton ones are "reglementaire"
