Title

Badge, United States Maritime Service, United States Maritime Service Training Station Patrol

Description

Ca. 1944. Each USMSTS had its own version of the United States Navy Shore Patrol; these units were responsible for the safety and security of all in the training establishments.

This badge was produced by badge manufacturer, F. G. Glover Company of New York. This company made badges and insignia for New York-related organizations, such as the New York City Police Department, Pinkertons, and New York City Railroad. This badge is made of nickel.

The eagle is of curious design; in its beak it holds a length of scroll. Most badges have the eagle's beak in an open or screeching aspect.
