Yet another DI.

Information? I know its a radio operators DI, but other than that?
It came off a Sargent's uniform jacket with a early radio operator triangle blue and gold patch on the lower right sleeve.

Thanks, I was looking in the MARS direction. And that's not the planet.

Well I'm too lazy to flip it. From what I gather they are rather rare.
Thanks!

From what I gather they are rather rare.

One brought $11.61 on eBay last Sunday; another sold for $8 earlier this month. (Search "Completed items" for details.)

Retail, of course, would likely be higher.

Thanks to PBK pointing out the pix is upside down, the band around the middle reads ?ACS in Morse Code.
