Default Mystery Copper WWII "War Button" from Yesterday Revealed

Hello - I did some more research on this item from our hunt yesterday and found that it comes from a WWII US Army Signal Corp Linemans Climbing Belt. For climbing telephone poles...I guess??? See link.

http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedi...bing-172493971

If I am reading this right the piece we found was an ID tag for the entire belt assembly:
"LC-23-C" is the US Part Number for the entire belt assembly
"70"" indicates the lanyard belt length
"4-45" indicates April 1945 as the manufacture date
"RH Buhrke Co" is the Manufacturer

Not valuable but something different and identified...always good!

Thanks for the view. C9
