Description: A great military conference badge for the 1980 Interallied Confederation of Reserve Officers congress in Montreal Canada. The Interallied Confederation of Reserve Officers is known by it's French acronym (CIOR) and is affiliated with NATO. The white part of the ribbon is showing some dirt or staining. I'm not familiar with how this badge would attach. Please take a look at the top back and make your own judgment. About CIOR: The Interallied Confederation of Reserve Officers, commonly referred to by its French acronym CIOR, is a NATO- affiliated non-political and non-profit umbrella organization. CIOR examines issues and provides analysis relating to Reserve Forces, such as participation in international operations, the law of armed conflict, the impact of NATO expansion on the Reserves, and employer support to Reservists.Founded in 1948 by the reserve officer associations of Belgium, France and the Netherlands, it now includes 36 participating nations from within and beyond NATO.
