seanmc1114 Posted January 17, 2019 Share #303 Posted January 17, 2019 Soldier of the 3rd Battalion 4th Air Defense Artillery when it was part of the 82nd Airborne Division. I guess the shoulder cord is scarlett, but it almost looks cavalry yellow to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's the Finance color rope, that Silver Grey color, and this guy is in the HHB of the unit, the S-1 Shop of the battalion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atb Posted January 17, 2019 Share #305 Posted January 17, 2019 Aren't those branch colored cords (authorized and unauthorized) worn on the other shoulder? Maybe it's a French or Belgian unit award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanmc1114 Posted March 18, 2019 Share #317 Posted March 18, 2019 Unknown fourragere worn by a soldier soon after the Gulf War. He served with the 1st Battalion 41st Infantry 2nd Armored Division during Desert Storm, but it I can't make out the DUI he is wearing in this photo and it looks like he's wearing an infantry brigade SSI. The 1-41st Infantry earned a Belgian Fourragere during WWII, but I don't think that is what he is wearing. Possibly the French Medaille Militaire?

Note he is not wearing a 9th Infantry Division SSI or Infantry blue disc behind his cap device. When i joined the NYANG, 2nd/108th INF, i was an 91A, medic. The supply SGT issued me medical collar insignia, blue discs, and blue cord. I double checked with my NCOIC and he said, NO!. I didnt think it was right. LOL!

The Blue stuff albeit with support branch discs were wore by those branches in an Infantry Battle Group, the Headquaters Companies, at least within the 4th Infantry Division at Ft Carson Colorado in 1963 in the PENTOMIC era. Not sure if was standard Army wide, would have to look at more different unit yearbooks to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
