Good evening,

could you confirm that AMU is for American Military University ?

Definitely look American. Maybe "Acute Medical Unit"

Hi,

American yes, but American Military University is an Online only school, no uniforms.

Thank your for your reply. Could it be US Army Marksmanship Unit ?

I don't believe there is such a unit, but just possibly [Texas] Agricultural and Mechanical University ROTC?

Similar titles turn up on ebay, a variety of letter combinations, some with round and some with square "full stops", including "A.M.U", just described as being genuine, old and Indian.

Laurent,

Not Army Marksmanship Unit, the only identifier for them are a black ball cap with the patch shown on the Wikipedia page. Worn only when instructing and competing in matches.

Leigh

Any thoughts on what the letters may stand for, if Indian?

Sorry, no idea at all, as I mentioned the description was / is just that they're "old" and "Indian" with no further information.

Just searched for the titles on eBay, couldn't find them but did find the title shown in post no. 1:

Being sold as Texas A&M University Cadet Insignia
