While you are waiting on a member(s) response - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Timothy! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forums: Select Your Area.... and selecting location information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country). You might also consider adding your state (or country) to your displayed profile (SETTINGS -> EDIT PROFILE) so if you ask a question, etc. - people may have more success helping you (your location may help, etc.)...

US Army WWI Private First Class (Denoted by single chevron), if the other emblem is a pair of crossed rifles then the soldier was assigned to an Infantry Unit.

The following forum might be able to help with your authenticity question. The aged look makes it seem old and legit, but then again anything can be aged nowadays.
