WWI Women's Ambulance Corps Cap Badge (Motor Corps of America)

This is a circa World War I Motor Corps of America cap badge. The Motor Corps started out as some women volunteering for automobile-related detail with the National League for Women's Service. When need heightened, they branched out to become a para-military ambulance corps based out of New York, run solely by women. This badge is an enameled crest flanked by two tires and a pair of wings.<

Circa World War I.

1-5/8" height and 3" width.
