Red Cross Service Pin...

[Leon]

Hello all,,,
I went back to the old hunted out park on the 1st... No silver this time out for me, but my cousin did find a nice 1917 Merc...
Found the American Red Cross Service pin/badge at about 6" down. It hit like a dime. I did a little search and found out it looks to be from the WW II era. It had what was left of the ribbon on it, but as I raised it from the hole the wind blew what was left of it away. Also found another one of those things that is supposed to hold on an airplane cowling. ( can't remember what there called ) For something that supposed to stay on, I sure do find a lot of them, lol...
You can just make the date out on the nickle, a 1935 Buffalo. Last but not least is (5) more Wheaties which brings my wheatie total for the year to (107)
Hope ya all have had fun,,, Good luck & Happy hunting~
