I was given this crest by one of my wife’s customers. It dates from WW2 and is cast aluminium or similar. It is about 6” x 4” (15cm x 10cm). It is for the Aeronautical Ispection Directorate, however, I can’t seem to find an awful lot about them. Does anybody know anymore about AID and where this crest might have been used?

Here is a link about somebody who worked for them:

On 11 February 1941, by approval of Queen Wilhelmina, the Dutch Legion gained a new name, the Prinses Irene Brigade (P.I.B.).
Helmet is dated 1940.
It looks as if the P.I.B decal has been applied over an formation sign, hence the repaint underneath.

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to share pictures of a neat jacket that I picked up at an estate sale recently. When I got home I was surprised to find some identification tucked in the front pocket. You never know for sure but I’m assuming that he (Robert G. Canard) was the owner. According to NARA records, Mr. Canard was drafted in 1941 at the age of 28. He entered the service in Richmond, Va. Mr. Canard was from Upperville in Fauquier County, Virginia, which is big horse country. Prior to the war he worked as a stableman on a horse farm. Just a guess, but his proximity to Washington, D.C. (Washington Army Group) and civilian work experience may have influenced his army unit and assignment to the CBI. Could he have been an army mule skinner? Mr. Canard passed away in 1975 and at that time lived in Front Royal, Virginia. Interestingly, this Northern Virginia town was the location of the Front Royal Remount Depot where he possibly may have worked or trained at some point during his service.

I was curious about the CBI patch…..Does it look theater-made?

Thanks for looking.

Tom
