Cuban Badges

Here are a couple of Cuban badges that I have had in my collection that I would like to share with everybody. The screws on the backs of the Guards and airborne badge have the star hallmark that I have seen on Soviet badges.

Hopefully, more stuff from Cuba will become more readily available for collectors.
