1960s US Army 22nd Field Artillery Regiment DI by Meyer

This is a 1960s distinctive insignia by N.S. Meyer for the United States Army 22nd Field Artillery Regiment. Personnel from the 4th Field Artillery Regiment were transferred to make up the 2nd, so the DI has the 4th Field Artillery coat of arms as a canton and reads LABORE ET HONORE (labor and honor).

Circa 1960s.

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

Plated brass with enamel.

Two posts.

N.S. MEYER INC. NEW YORK, raised shield maker mark, 22M in crest.

This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months VAL90 LABX12/11

7+ (Very Fine+): The DI shows some light wear and slight crazing to the enamel.

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