    That would have been from the 45th Tank Battalion. We didn't have that many armored divisions. siegfried schlagrule

    coloradocav,

    interesting.

    Do you think that would be World War I or WW II?

    Old tank
    plus
    Infantry rifles behind it.

    Searched around and could not find something like it.
    Did find these, seem to have the same ridge around it during
    world war one.

    Actually, it dates smack-dab in between!

    The background pattern, or field, of the disk— diamond-crosshatched, with tiny acorns in the diamonds— identifies it as a Type II collar disk, officially c. 1926-37. However, some reportedly remained in use until around 1940.

    In addition to the acorn pattern, there are a couple of other Type II varieties that have dots/circles or shields within the diamonds.
    Forgotten but not gone.
