This pin was given to me from an older gentleman that recently passed away..I have done many searches and have not found anything like it on the internet. He said it was possibly WWII era but was not sure on its accuracy...

The pin is about 1in X 3/4th inch

It looks like an insignia pin, but I can't find anything like it. The Marine raiders of WWII had a skull on a red background like that. The USS Virginia's motto is sic semper tyrannis. It could be a special ops group too.... Just thinking out loud. Hope it helps!

Well I looked all over and didn't find a match. The problem with unit crests is that there are just SO many of them, and add to that it could be a decommissioned unit which won't show up in new catalogs......

ffuries seems to know a bit about these, hopefully he'll see this post.
