4. Thanks for pointing that one out.
5. Question, is there a ALI without the Nulli Secundus motto? Or, Mazeas made an error on these illustrations. (That would have most of us chasing an imaginary badge...)

1. I do! These are my year end '08 aquisition.
2. See below. Also a scan of the "correct" Beaver collars.
3. I guess you've got me Bill - I don't have a reference. I'm too lazy to be a good researcher, & this may be one of those stubborn opinions which gets trotted out as fact. I know the opinion is shared by some well respected prairie guys, but I can offer no empirical proof.
4. On a side note, at least one officers badge exists for the BCH (or VIS if you will) Bronze overlays on brass - very classy.
5. I'll go out on a limb here & say there is no such thing as an ALI badge without the Nulli Secundus motto. Obviously, a statement that something doesn't exist can never be wholly proven - it can only be dis-proven. If there is a motto-less badge, someone on the forum will produce evidence on the next posting.
