Star of David Lapel Badge

[Spitace41]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has any idea what this badge would have been for? Possibly a locally made "On War Service" type badge?

Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Kind regards,

With the broad arrow on it ? I find very strange.....

Cut from some broad arrow marked piece of brass?

It doesn't have the look of a mass produced item and the lapel fitting looks as if someone had a couple of clues but the number seems pretty high.

Suggestion: were there any makers of brass rifle oilers, etc. that used the "L H" marking?

Light Horse old comrades lapel badge?

I was thinking along the lines of the Jewish greeting “To Life”.

La Heim = “To Life” or “L’chaim”

Could this be a Holocaust survivor’s tribute?

Could it have been cut from the base of a shell case

Good idea, hence my question as to makers that might have used the LH mark.

Not attacked a shell base before, but you would sure work up a sweat on that one, much like a cartoon I once saw of a guy chopping down a tree to make a toothpick!
