1930s US Army 97th Field Artillery Battalion DI by Dondero

This is a 1930s distinctive insignia for the United States 97th Field Artillery Battalion by A.H. Dondero. The DI is a gold and red crest with its two halves separated by a jagged line. There is a cannon in the lower half and a scroll at the bottom that reads ME SEMPER ARCESSUNT (they always send me).

Circa 1930s.

Approximately 15/16" in height 1-1/16" in width.

Plated brass with enamel.

Single screw post with disc backing.

A.H. DONDERO WASHINGTON D.C.

This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months MAX96 LBHX10/11

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The DI shows some very small spots of light wear.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
