Here is one for my Milwaukee friends. I should have published this years ago. This badge was officially sanctioned by the Milwaukee Police Department and could have been worn for a short time during the celebration. These badges were private purchase pieces and not department issue. This one, as most probably still are, is factory sealed and was never worn. The star style badge was the first type worn by the Milwaukee P D until 1901.
Militarist I have not had to meet up with any of these badges here and hope never too :-) Cool to have still in package . Did our PD get new badges ?
Thanks Mani, the answer to your question is no, the Milw. P.D. is still using the their classic eagle top badges of the 1901 style. They just got new patches a short while ago which I haven't seen yet.
Ok when you see it you can tell me :-) I prefer not getting that close lol
