Rare Early WWII 94th Fighter Squadron DI or Squadron Badge

This is an early World War II United States Army Air Forces 94th Fighter Squadron DI (Distinctive Insignia) (actually more of a Squadron Badge) as worn by the pilots of the unit presented by World War I ACE fighter Eddie Rickenbacker. The pin has an oval frame and at center is an Uncle Sam-type top hat.: Massaro's USAAF DI Book mentions this badge as existing with a drop in catch, but it also exists with a come-under catch as seen here.

Circa early World War II.

Approximately 1/2" in width and 1-1/16" in height.

Sterling silver.

Horizontal pin with come-under locking catch.

STERLING.

This is from a United States Army Air Forces collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VEJJX08 LAAJJX SAJJJX3/11 TRCEJX12 LABJJX1/12 SGDJX12/13
