This version was for 'Croix-de-Feu' nationalist vets who hadn't won the WW1 Croix de Guerre, but who did qualify for the Croix du Combattants.

Thank you Robin, that is awesome. It makes perfect sense now. Of course now I have to find the other version as well, LOL

Here's another 5th Cavalry Traditions stickpin.
Found this at a show just this last Saturday. This one is a little rough around one eye socket
and nose compared to my other one but I think i was lucky to find it and I like the patina

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
After 40 years of searching, I finally found the Holy Grail.
Here it is, along with updated pix of my little SS-TK mosaic.
The last piece of the basic SS-TV collar patch jigsaw, 1935-45.
It's also a 'full circle' thing ................. the 1935 patch was made for early Dachau guards while the 1945 patch is from the Dachau stores hoard.
The 1935 patch is the rarest type of SS-TV collar TK insignia, while the 1945 one is the most common.
So.
'Full circle' all round !
Remarkable! What an outstanding and now complete collection.
Regards, Al
Congratulations Robin.
