found a metal e2 infantry insignia that appears to have been soaked in blood. nice and crusty and a bit corroded.

hope this trooper made it

Possiblity that the blood might not have belonged to the troop wearing that insignia.

we've pulled more than a few bloody items from the boxes in the past. this one just kinda struck me funny. i don't ever recall guys wearing the pin on insignia in the field when i was in. makes me wonder what happened with this on.

we have really gotten some cool stuff through drmo.

we got a marine's duffle bag that has all of his duty stations written on it along with his combat assignments by region and city. some have several tick marks by them. i have a lst name and have been trying to find the guy. i thought it would be cool to return his duffel to him.

When I was in... all rank insignia was the same regardless of MOS.  What is an infantry E2 insignia?   Don't all MOS's have the same rank insignia?  Have things changed since I left the service or is this from a pre-modern era?

well i am assuming it's infantry.

single stripe with a pair of crossed rifles beneath it.

or is this marine e2?  hmmm i gotta look over my enlisted ranks. been too damn long since i got out. i figured this was a spiffy new thing to go with those gay assed black berets. it was attached to an Army bdu cap.
