I found these and was wondering if someone knew anything about these and what military branch they are from. They are very sturdy metal with 2 pins on the back with cover so you can wear them proudly very nice

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

It is called a distinctive unit insignia (DUI). Most soldiers call them unit crests.

They are a popular collectible for militaria collectors. Your example with the clutch back is relatively modern.
