Roy: If you are a member of facebook, go to Military Collectors Network and join N/C and it is forum group that can help with everything from pre WW! to current. I am a member and have identified all my war items with the groups help from helmets to hats to shells to buttons to visors, and anything else related to post Civil War. you will need to post photo and ask for identification of item. It is a forum that has members from all over the world . The English language is used. You can easily get addicted to this forum if you have military items you cannot identify. Coon Boy
