I can't identify this. It may not be a military pin, but it did come from the estate of a former Marine (1940s), who had a collection of military pins. He was also very religious, so this could be non-military religious. Or, it could be military religious (chaplain?) or first aid (medic?).
It's 1 cm diameter and features a cross inside a red heart. The overall background is blue, but you can see an odd-shaped five-prong design on the background as well.
I do not know -- But maybe something from Red Cross related to Military work they did or a church.......???
Reminds me of :
LUTHER ROSE SEAL SYMBOL CHRISTIAN CROSS
