craig_pickrall Posted November 16, 2007 #26 Posted November 16, 2007 This is an assortment of chevron pics that I have taken at various times. If there is anything of interest that you need ore detail on let me know.
aclfan Posted November 19, 2007 Author #36 Posted November 19, 2007 Thanks for the images. These will definitely help determine my collection. Larry Neal Larry, this is an attempt to answer your question with examples from my collection. It is probably more infomation than you really wanted but it is an area with many variations and spec changes.
4STARCHRIS Posted January 12, 2008 #37 Posted January 12, 2008 What are the chevron in this post. Post 28. The ones with numerous rockers? Do yo have anything os Specialist 8 and 9? Thanks for sharing 4starchris
craig_pickrall Posted January 12, 2008 #38 Posted January 12, 2008 The chevrons with all of the rockers are the pre / early WW2 specialist chevrons. These were replaced with the T chevrons.
4STARCHRIS Posted January 12, 2008 #39 Posted January 12, 2008 The chevrons with all of the rockers are the pre / early WW2 specialist chevrons. These were replaced with the T chevrons. Are they rare? Do you have anything on Spec 8 and 9? Thanks for the info 4starchris
craig_pickrall Posted January 14, 2008 #40 Posted January 14, 2008 I don't think those chevrons would be considered rare but they certainly are getting harder to find. What are you interested in on the SPEC 8 & 9? Did you want pics or something else?
4STARCHRIS Posted January 14, 2008 #41 Posted January 14, 2008 I don't think those chevrons would be considered rare but they certainly are getting harder to find. What are you interested in on the SPEC 8 & 9? Did you want pics or something else? NO BIG INTEREST. iT WAS JUST A RANK THAT WAS CREATED AND NEVER WORN. YES THEY ARE GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND. PIC WOULD BE NICE. 4STARCHRIS
craig_pickrall Posted January 14, 2008 #42 Posted January 14, 2008 Here are some pics. I included the SPEC 7 too as it had a shorter run than the others below it. SPEC 7
4STARCHRIS Posted January 14, 2008 #45 Posted January 14, 2008 Fantastic pics of the rank. I greatly appreciate the effort. Did anyone ever hold Spec8-9 rank. None that I know of. However, I do not knoe everything. 4starchris
craig_pickrall Posted January 14, 2008 #46 Posted January 14, 2008 According to Emerson in his book "Chevrons" the SPEC 8 and 9 rank was never used.
ADMIN Posted January 15, 2008 #47 Posted January 15, 2008 Craig, you have done an excellent thread here! All the pictures and information! Great job!
36-tex Posted January 15, 2008 #48 Posted January 15, 2008 Craig, what the heck is this thing? I think it is a cut-down. If so, they took their time to do it right.
craig_pickrall Posted January 15, 2008 #49 Posted January 15, 2008 I'm not sure what it is but would agree with you that it is a cut down.
Stinger Gunner USMC Posted January 20, 2008 #50 Posted January 20, 2008 does anyone know of the dates that the narrow spec chevrons were used?
