    Ok I will send you an email this weekend with some pics. Ok. My Winchester 30-30 is marked with the broadarrow C in three places. I have a dogtag, lapel button and at least one, maybe two, hat badges. I am looking for the armband for the Yukon Rangers. I am from there but live currently in Saskatchewan

    "Dog Tags"!   Well, the first thing to remember for your proposed online museum would be to get the terminology correct and recognize that those little red and green fiber discs were called Identification Discs.

    Thanks for your input Edstorey .. just that people identify with the word dog tags and their use . the term Identification discs is correct by not very useful with their procurement.

    It is good that you want to contribute to the internet, but the web essentially feeds upon itself with most people using it as their only source of information. So instead of perpetuating errors and misconceptions which will only get copied and repurposed onto other sites; why not up the ante to take a minute and use the proper terminology and provide accurate well-researched information.
