I would guess it has a better chance of being German. The Germans had almost endless stickpins - used as lapel pins, compared to the Americans.

Hi Andy ,

First good to hear that your health is stabile; that is very good news .

I think if it were German, it would resemble a traditional German fireman's axe.
