Silver & Military Badge

[R_Arn15]

Today I made it out to a permission I got recently for the first time. I honestly thought it would've been hunted to death since it sits right beside a main road in my county. Found the first Rosie about 10 minutes out of the truck. Found a pocket full of clad over the next two hours but I did manage to pull out one more Rosie and this Military badge. it ended up being a cool find after I did a little research. Here is a description I found on the internet but if anyone has any further details please let me know. I apologize for the last part of the description being cut off. Operator error!! The motto said "The Bayonet Decides". I read that they are quite rare however this one is not in the best shape as you can see. Still cool to me though!! Thanks for looking and here's to finding a lot more silver in 2020!!

Good hit. I always think about the disappointment the one who lost something personal feels. I know I would be beating myself up once I discovered that badge was missing. At least now it may not be in the original owners hands but it is not lost to history.
