It just so happens that I came across a bunch while browsing ebay. They were all identified as being Latvian and from the 1930's. Since I know nothing about the subject I am taking them at their word.
I hope they are what you were looking for. I am posting them just as I found them.

I found some more as I was browsing ebay. I hope this is what you want, if not I'll stop posting. In fact any indication that you're even seeing these would be appreciated.

I'm glad you like them. It's a coincidence that they've been appearing on ebay. Here's another that was on tonight as well as a photo of some army buttons and another of what was described as an army officer's cap insignia all from the pre ww2 era.

I saw this photo of a current cap badge and thought I would post it for a comparison with the old one posted above.
