Five Military Pins – the Haganah

Five Military Pins – the Haganah
Five military pins:
1. "Ben-Nun" – presumably, a pin of the Shai (Information Service), the intelligence arm of the Haganah.
2. "Mishmar HaBayit" (Home Guard) – presumably, a pin of the National Guard, the organization preceding the Knesset Guard.
3. "SHD" – presumably, a pin of the transport unit of the Haganah in Jerusalem, "Sherut Haspakat Delek" (Fuel Supply Service).
4. "Chemed" pin – science corps of the Haganah and later of the IDF.
5. "CHEN" pin – Women's Auxiliary Corps.
Size and condition vary.
