Bunch of images, not too concerned about the bag but grandma wanted me to include it.
So it was for my great grandfather who retired in 1911 or 12 from the National guard PA at the age of 30. He was an engineer, and we think it was for artillery in the guard. Apparently an expert marksman too, going from the badges.
Sadly we don't know much more than that. We would love to know anything else about them, and I'm especially curious what the OED on the button stands for.
Thanks for any help!
