CAF Service pins
Hi
Amongst other things, I picked up these subject items at the recent Moncton Show. For group edification, old (1985-2011) bronze level pattern on the left, new (2011-) bronze pattern on the right. I was led to believe it was bronze for service that earned a Canadian Forces Decoration (CD);12-22yrs. Silver for a CD w/ clasp (22-32yrs) holder and gold for CD w/2 clasps (32yrs) and above. Can some kind member reference entitlement for the various grades? Never mind; I found it: https://www.legion.ca/support-for-ve...es-service-pin https://legionmagazine.com/en/2011/0...s-service-pin/ https://www.royalcdnmedicalsvc.ca/wp...ervice-Pin.pdf regards Darrell

Darrell,
From the same source (Gunny) I picked up a gold (32 yrs plus) old style service pin. I knew about them at the time but never applied for one, so now at least I have one for my blazer. |

Hi Loyalist
I saw that Gunney had a few of these pins but I was distracted by the Canadian Forces Decorations for a while. These 2 types of service pins would make a nice display, I think. Regardless, I'll wait for my gold one when comes time. If CRA is extended to 65............maybe they'll need to come up with a Diamond one! regards Darrell
