do you have any more photos from different angles ? did you dig it up on a known site used by the army/air force/Navy ?
a photo from the top might help a bit.

Hi Gina,
Ive no idea what it is but to clean it you would need a wire brush and some rust remover.

You've got me stumped! The army did use a lot of steel equipment.

Scaffold/guard railing?

It looks like it may be the sort of thing asociated with scaffolding where you place a scaffold tube inside it and then secure it with a "grub" screw.

There are numerous peices similar to this used for erecting guard rails along rivers and the like and they come in all sizes up to I believe 3 inch tube diameter.

Interesting item!
