What does CAL mean on a World War 1 military pin that has two crossed rifles?

I'm not certain what CAL designates. Typically, anything extra, numbers and/or letters is a unit designation. The crossed rifles, however, is specifically the symbol of Infantry. It can be nothing else. Crossed swords is Cavalry, crossed cannons is Artillery, the Caduceus is Medical, a flaming bombard is Ordinance, crossed semaphore flags is Signal/Communications.


What does a World War 2 pin circular with crossed rifles mean?

It sounds like you are describing a collar brass insignia for Infantry. The Army had several Branches such as Infantry, Ordnance, Air Corps, Legal, Medical, etc. A soldier wore a round brass insiginia that was 1.0 inch diameter on the collar of his uniform that indicated his branch of service. On this disc was an emblem that was a symbol of his branch. The symbol for the infantry was crossed rifles. Notice that a soldier may be assigned to an Infantry Division but be a part of the Medial service or the Artillery. Therefore, the insignia he wore would reflect this specialty and not the Infantry. This branch insignia was worn on the LEFT collar. On the Right collar was worn a similar disc with "US" on it.
