AMC?

Hi, does anyone know what this is? Middle East or African manufacture. My first thought was Army medical Corps but that seemingly never existed, thanks in advance Mike

Hi, the first AIF wore a small die-struck AMC title above the curved "Australia" title before they were replaced by colour patches in 1916. The titles were quite small, about 10mm high from memory.
This cast pattern might be a middle east variant.
There was also a very LARGE AMC title worn by Australians in the Boer War.

Hi,
This is not the Australian one, but current Pakistan Army Medical Corps s/t.

A.M.C = Army Medical Corps
A.D.C = Army Dental Corps
A.F.N.S = Auxilliary Force Nursing Service

All Pakistani and all cast brass.

Hi Steven, thanks for that, not quite what I expected but good to know, thanks again, Mike

Dear Steve,
Thanks for the info, you live and learn.

Here's the Australian AMC title, about 12mm high.
I think India also had an AMC title.

Not sure how best to say this but the lines/cuts scored through the connecting bars at the junction of each letter is very typical of Indian/Pakistani titles.

I agree with 'modern Pakistani'.
