My idea is:

U.S. Army Infantry collar brass
Stamped numbers are possibly soldier's serial number? Never seen that on the collar brass.

What does it look like on back? Depending on method of attachment it could be an equipment tag?

Thank you very much indeed, Professor! I cannot recommend your correspondence course too highly, and the monthly newsletter is beyond praise as well.

LOL... You are the man Tony!

Nice PBK! Great pics... and, a great find!! I bet most those tags ended up in a trash fire someplace...

Not even close to 99%... I can tell you that!

I look pretty silly on 50% of my guesses...

But, it's my favorite forum so I spend most my T-Net time researching and trying to help.
