firefighter Posted March 1, 2013 Share #86 Posted March 1, 2013 WW1 PFC chevrons on dress blues Great looking uniform.I know this about the stripes but i really like the pistol & rifle marksman badges with the EG&A.On the bottom left sleeve above the marksman diet mark there is a square patch.Is that a repair or an actually patch?Looks like a discharge diamond.I also like the 'E' patch.

Mtlh2010 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share #91 Posted April 18, 2013 Original 1892 Gunnery Sergeant for summer white uniform. As poster clarified earlier, contrary to popular belief these are NOT "Master Gunnery Sergeant" chevrons. The 1892 GySgt had the three flat ties at the bottom of the chevrons.
