Hi Keith,

it is an Latvijan National Corps badge. Like there was Estonian National Corps. Fighting against German's in II world war.
Common Badge. I think i have this badge somewhere with doc. I try to post it, when i have time!

Lauri,

What veteran badges are there for Estonian corps? I have the Voru 1944-1974 badge, are there any others?

Here's the doc for the badge. The father of the recipient of this badge was the artillery commander for the 150th Latvian Rifle Corps but was KIA in August 1944. His son was a Junior Lieutenant in the same unit.
