Sir,
Yes, you are correct. The marking is B.A.XVII as mentioned in your message. The number 3 could actually be the number 5. The stamping is indistinct as can be noted in the attached fotos.
Do you have any insight as to whether this was a Grenadier Regiment or a Guards Grenadier Regiment as I have read reference to both names? Might you know of the campaigns that they participated in during WW 1?

Thank you,
Ricardo
