--RARE ORIGINAL WORLD WAR II AUSTRALIA MADE UNITED STATES ARMY & MARINE CORPS COLONEL - NAVY CAPTAIN INSIGNIA, (1-1/2 x 3/4 INCH) SIZE, PIN-BACK. (1 SET AS SHOWN)
--MARKED:
“K.C. LUKE MELB” “STERLING” (MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA)
INFORMATION:
The insignia for a colonel is a silver eagle which is a stylized representation of the eagle dominating the Great Seal of the United States (which is the coat of arms of the United States). As on the Great Seal, the eagle has a U.S. shield superimposed on its chest and is holding an olive branch and bundle of arrows in its talons. However, in simplification of the Great Seal image, the insignia lacks the scroll in the eagle's mouth and the rosette above its head. On the Great Seal, the olive branch is always clutched in the eagle's right-side talons, while the bundle of arrows is always clutched in the left-side talons. The head of the eagle faces towards the olive branch, rather than the arrows.
