    Looks like a snap or braded piece that would go on a web belt or canteen cover to me? Monty

    It looks like the buttons that were attached to the USMC "Dungaree" Field Uniforms. They were riveted on.

    These were worn on the p-41 and p-44 HBT utility uniform AKA: Dungaree's. These uniforms were worn in WWII and Korea and several years after.
