Button help? It says "persevere M 1811"

Found this button today. It was toasted when it came out of the ground but I cleaned it up.

I'm not sure if this refers to 1811–12 New Madrid earthquakes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Madrid_earthquake
OR
so called 1811 positions? Not many open 1811 positions
or none of the above. Nice find!

a job forum?....would think highly unlikely.

For what it's worth, it is not listed anywhere between the covers of Alberts. It smacks of a school or military institute button though, but there don't seem to be any to speak of founded in 1811 that begin with "M" and none I've found on the web where "perservere" was a motto. . (maybe it's an early generic "m" for "military"?)

no not a job forum. This term apparently applies to these jobs:
- Army Criminal Investigation Command (requires prior time in the Army)
- NOAA OLE
- Health and Human Services OIG
- USDA Forest Service
- Secret Service
- FBI
