I found this button the other day out in the middle of a pasture where I think there may have been a house. There is nothing left of the house, not even a rock but I have gut feeling there was a house there so I'll keep looking. The button has two flags crossed with something below it. I originally thought that it was some type of sports button. But then again my grandparents have owned the place since 1950 and there wasn't any house then. One of my good friends who was in the military said it was a Signal Corp Button. Is this the case? How Old is it. WWI WWII? Any of you button buffs let me know.

Blanket is about an hour south of Abilene or 1 1/2 hours north of Austin. Small city of about 400 people.
