    military dress pin??

    i found this pin by a world war 2 dog tag. I am wondering if anyone know what kind of pin it is. It is just a little wider than a quarter and has a Z patteren across it, the pin on the back is still there

    The type of pin on the back will help date it. A back pic can be most helpful. Looks wider than a half dollar.
    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    Looks like a shoulder bar pin, a lot were made in Gold, but if you couldn't afford gold, polished brass would be the next best thing
