    Any idea what the symbol is on this
    Button? This came to me in a lot of WW2 items acquired by my grandfather during the war.

      That’s an Italian National Fascist Party symbol, a fasces and an axe.

      Yeah - but it's all over American government too!

      "The fasces frequently occurs as a charge in heraldry: it is present on the reverse of the U.S. Mercury dime coin and behind the podium in the United States House of Representatives; and it was the origin of the name of the National Fascist Party in Italy (from which the term fascism is derived)."
