USMC Paratrooper Badge Sterling Gold Plate Pathfinder
This is museum quality reproduction of the USMC / NAVY Paratrooper badge made in sterling silver with a 24 karat gold plate from the Korean era and still in use today. This badge is awarded after the 5 additional jumps including two at night and must be accomplished from at least two different aircraft. There are two versions of this badge, a pin back that was used until the mid 1960's and the clutch back that was used since the start of the badge in 1951. This is the pin back version that was used from the Korean era until early Vietnam. In Vietnam the Marine Recon Force had a skull soldered onto the paratrooper badge.

As an overseas customer ordering from the UK, I have found www.norbay.com to be very speedy, helpful and professional. Shipping from the USA to the UK has not been a problem and the on-line tracking has allowed me to check the status of my orders. I love the content on the website and they always get new items to look at.
