What's this please?

Does anybody recognize what this badge is? I'm assuming it's labor related.
TIA

Judging by the writings on badge this for builders brigade.

The writing says: "Command of the soviet country, the deal of the worker, brigadier" The last might be wrong because I badly see it. Also the translation my be little incorrect because I am not Russian speaker.

It might given for brigadier as the badge of distinction.

Hope this helps.

It's a 1930 Volunteer Militia badge, possibly a fake :(

Brigadier is actually "BRIGADMIL" - an accronim for Militia Brigade.

Hopefully not fake cuz somebody paid $355 for it on eBay.
But thanks, as always, for your tireless help.
