That is a fine grouping friend.

Very nice!!! I would like to guess that maybe the "service" banner was hung in a window. Similar to what we see now for families that have a son/daughter deployed (my neighbor has one)
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Hi Martin
The "sons" in service banner was a US home front patriotic way for families to show how many members were in service. Normally put inside the front room window for display to passers by.
Yours is interesting because it has Infantry and crossed rifles with bayonet on top. So this would be US made-can you show the back of the banner?
Nice grouping.

Hi Martin
These a re better clear pictures.
I first thought that the "Infantry" and "Crossed rifles " looked like they were felt , however this is all hand embroidered , one could assume this was made by the mother or close family friends , but that is speculation and we know how far that gets!!
Very nice sons in service banner , hand made US home front-superb.
