1960s US Army 517th Air Defense Artillery (ADA) DI

This is a 1960s distinctive insignia for the United States Army 517th Air Defense Artillery. The DI is probably Japanese-made from the look of the posts. The DI shows an aerial view of a black airplane and reads WE SWEEP THE SKY.

Circa 1960s.

Approximately 1-1/8" in height and 1" in width.

Plated brass with enamel.

Two posts.

None.

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

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The DI shows some light wear and tarnish.

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