※※※※Please be sure to refer to the profile before applying if you wish to purchase※※※※ This is a shooting commendation badge from the First District Commander's Office of the National Safety Force. The National Safety Force was established on October 15, 1952 (Showa 27) by reorganizing the National Police Reserve, and existed for less than two years until it was reorganized into the Self-Defense Forces on July 1, 1954 (Showa 29). I believe this is a rather rare item. Although there is some age-related deterioration, I believe the condition is relatively good. Please check the photos. I have tried to include photos to show any noticeable scratches or stains, but please understand that there may be other minor scratches and stains before applying to purchase.
