I would say that yes, your Guard's Badge is WWII vintage as the flag lacks the tell-tale post-war tassles to the bottom of the flag.

Yes, it's a WW2 type.

Here is a pictue of the one I bought.

Hi DioMac, yours is a post war example.

Note the fringed tassles to the bottom of the flag and how the flag is more curved in shape.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks Ade I was pretty sure it was. Not that I mind, I paid less than $5 for it.

That was a good price. It still has some age to it and will most likely date from the 1950's.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ade,

later in my opinion, probably 70/80, you should see the mark's badge.

What do you think about this other one?
Is postwar or war made?

Definitely wartime.
