Have finished with surgery and mutiple follow up visits and can
concentration on more fun stuff again.  It is United States Signal
Corps. The Dexter (left) flag was white with a red center.  The
Sinister (right) flag is red with a white center.  The gold flaming
torch was added in 1884.  The large wreath underneath makes me think
of the military hat badge. I have not found an authoratative source to
tell if it was officer or enlisted.
