DKNYC71 Posted February 16, 2019 #1 Posted February 16, 2019 Dear Forum Members, I would be very grateful if you can assist in dating the following 2 Officer cap EGA's. One is Dress, the other is Service dress. Thanks to everyone in advance! - Dave Here is the fist one: Dress cap EGA.
jeremiahcable Posted February 16, 2019 #5 Posted February 16, 2019 This one is a 1937 pattern EGA, seen up through the KW era. It was one of the more popular styles during WW2.
jeremiahcable Posted February 16, 2019 #10 Posted February 16, 2019 And the same with this one. Same pattern, two different insignia manufacturers. They are nice examples.
DKNYC71 Posted February 16, 2019 Author #11 Posted February 16, 2019 So these could have been manufactured during the KW?
jeremiahcable Posted February 16, 2019 #12 Posted February 16, 2019 Probably the WW2 era or immediately after. Officer insignia was private purchase so a lot of those guys continued wearing the older patterns.
DKNYC71 Posted February 16, 2019 Author #14 Posted February 16, 2019 Many Thanks Gents! In Air Corps WWII wings Pasquale is a very desired maker and is WWII and not later, is that the same for EGAs?
Fly USMC Posted February 16, 2019 #15 Posted February 16, 2019 YES harder to find this style marked PASQUALE! Great EGA
Brig Posted February 16, 2019 #16 Posted February 16, 2019 I'd say WWII production for both, Sterling service emblems was an economy wartime measure mid-late WWII
