WW1 Female Munitions Worker 1916 "On War Service" Soldiers Pin Badge
Brass metal, pin fastener and hook catch. Maker stamped on back, and numbered 124093. From the IWM “ This triangular shaped badge issued after conscription in 1916 by the Ministry of Munitions. It was intended solely for women engaged in urgent war work. A clue to this fact is that the previous versions of the badge intended for men have a button hole fitting on the back. The 1916 triangular badge has a pin like a brooch for women.”
