U.S.M.A. military pin ***SOLVED***

[ModernMiner]

Calling all military buffs. I dug this pin (collar pin ) yesterday and am trying to figure out what the "M.A" stands for.
Any ideas?
Would this be a WW2 pin?
Thanks for your help,

Savant's right!

(I'm gettin' too old for this... at first I thought it was MA for Mass. National Guard. Then I noticed it was punctuated. )

Checked Laframboise, and he attributed this collar insignia as c. 1917-21.

No such thing as "too old" PBK.

Thanks PBK. You're not old buddy, just aging like a fine wine.
So a WW1 pin then it is.
