Proud Kraut Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted October 7, 2020 Thank you very much for the ID! Here´s a picture of the back. Looks like it is a put-together or was repaired once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlymb Posted October 8, 2020 Share #4 Posted October 8, 2020 The marking dates from 1945-46 I think, in 1946 Drago moved and the address changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beezman Posted October 8, 2020 Share #5 Posted October 8, 2020 Yes this is an early Indochina War badge. It looks like a period repair, the pin on back is the correct type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
