I found the button posted below today at a baseball field. I can clearly read that the back says Waterbury Button Co. Conn. (All indented). However the symbols on the front are what I'm looking to find help ID'ing. If anyone knows it would be greatly appreciated!!!

I thought these were more band/musician related than military?

That is why I don't rely on E-Bay for identification of a relic. I do use the site for research sometimes but I never base an identification solely on information found there. Here's a link to one like yours on the Waterbury site.

I want to add that I am not implying that Z.K. identified it as military. He may have just found the button on e-bay and posted the link to it.

Just saw this...yes, I just found the image and tried to help that way. It wasn't an endorsement of the eBay description, just a starting point. Cheers
