Hello Truth1253. Sweet find. Sounds like it could be from the '40's...better than '44 Wheat...if you can say that it was a good hunt.

Thanks for the post and Good Luck out there. C9

That's a way cool find mate. I love military related stuff. Never seen a Sherman tank employee pin before. I wonder if it's possible to trace the number on the pin to the employee? Nice find.:icon_thumleft:

I wish I could find one like this online. Not one to be found so far.

Its probably a pretty rare piece, I imagine probably a few thousand made and not many survive.
