According to scant informations that I have.....
Memorial insignia made for the battle of Rachaya et Messifre (in 1925), of 4e Escadron of the 1er REC, late 1920s, Produced in Cambodia but never issued. Made in 125 exemplaires.It seems that the original insignias had an Indochinese coin soldered to the back.
