<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 67292, member: 44"]I agree that it is probably an anti-aircraft unit crest. I don't think it is meant to mean US planes. It probably means shooting down any bird, plane, flying overhead. By using an eagle it may mean a real serious, predator, plane. I found a couple of other eagles shot with an arrow crests on French related sale sites. I wasn't sure of my translation ability, and the Google translator wasn't much help on pinning them down.</p><p><br /></p><p>Believe this is the same pic Logan found:</p><p><a href="http://www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,310024232,var,Pins-Ballard-Armees-51-eme-RA-Age-Qvod-Agis-Aigle-ref-6980,language,F.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,310024232,var,Pins-Ballard-Armees-51-eme-RA-Age-Qvod-Agis-Aigle-ref-6980,language,F.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,310024232,var,Pins-Ballard-Armees-51-eme-RA-Age-Qvod-Agis-Aigle-ref-6980,language,F.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>English translation:</p><p><a href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//www.delcampe.net/page/item/id%2C310024232%2Cvar%2CPins-Ballard-Armees-51-eme-RA-Age-Qvod-Agis-Aigle-ref-6980%2Clanguage%2CF.html&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie=ISO-8859-1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//www.delcampe.net/page/item/id%2C310024232%2Cvar%2CPins-Ballard-Armees-51-eme-RA-Age-Qvod-Agis-Aigle-ref-6980%2Clanguage%2CF.html&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie=ISO-8859-1" rel="nofollow">http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http://www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,310024232,var,Pins-Ballard-Armees-51-eme-RA-Age-Qvod-Agis-Aigle-ref-6980,language,F.html&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie=ISO-8859-1</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Pucelle-insigne-medaille-51-RA-Regiment-dArtillerie-/110685517925?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_71&hash=item19c55ef865" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Pucelle-insigne-medaille-51-RA-Regiment-dArtillerie-/110685517925?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_71&hash=item19c55ef865" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Pucelle-insigne-medaille-51-RA-Regiment-dArtillerie-/110685517925?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_71&hash=item19c55ef865</a></p><p><br /></p><p>English translation:</p><p><a href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//www.ebay.fr/itm/Pucelle-insigne-medaille-51-RA-Regiment-dArtillerie-/110685517925%3Fpt%3DLH_DefaultDomain_71%26hash%3Ditem19c55ef865&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie=UTF-8" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//www.ebay.fr/itm/Pucelle-insigne-medaille-51-RA-Regiment-dArtillerie-/110685517925%3Fpt%3DLH_DefaultDomain_71%26hash%3Ditem19c55ef865&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie=UTF-8" rel="nofollow">http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Pucelle-insigne-medaille-51-RA-Regiment-dArtillerie-/110685517925?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_71&hash=item19c55ef865&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie=UTF-8</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
