I have a book around here somewhere if I can find it, I'll try and look it up. < Message edited by appliedlips -- 5/5/2010 10:44:10 PM > _____________________________ LOOKING FOR PONTILLED OR EARLY SQUAT SODAS FROM HIGHLAND,ILLNOIS..

Status: offline Well, did a bit of searching, but I'm still searching for images.  Obviously, the US is Army, and the cannons are Artillery.  the EGA must be an early USMC button or badge.  One of my fave marine corps sites for stuff is Sgt. Grit.  Here is their posted history on the emblem. http://www.grunt.com/scuttlebutt/corps-stories/geninfo/emblem.asp Wikipedia had a few images, but not a very good history of them pictured...so I'm still looking.  I dont know if you can tell from the history listed above will describe what you have to target a date, but it seems to be fairly old.  I will keep looking though. _____________________________ Poison Us Member: APBCA ( www.poisonbottleclub.org ) Visit Us @: www.poisonousaddiction.com Looking for digging partners in/near Savannah.

Status: offline Well, everyone has that same writeup, but no images.  The best bet I can tell you is to contact the museum itself, and, maybe make a donation if it's what we think it is..  I would love to take my wife to this museum some day. http://www.usmcmuseum.com/ _____________________________ Poison Us Member: APBCA ( www.poisonbottleclub.org ) Visit Us @: www.poisonousaddiction.com Looking for digging partners in/near Savannah.
