easterneagle87 Posted July 7, 2016 Share #1 Posted July 7, 2016 Can anyone ID this aiguillette? fourragere? Looks like an Aide-de-Camp. I had pieces of one of similar construction. I didn't know where to post this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant S. Posted July 8, 2016 Share #3 Posted July 8, 2016 IDK, it looks more like the dress cavalry hat cord worn on the helmets way back when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ww1buff Posted July 9, 2016 Share #4 Posted July 9, 2016 This is an aiguilette that is missing one of the ferrules. I have a similar one (although I am not at home to compare it in detail) with the two matching pieces with hook ends for attachment instead of being a single piece. Mine dates from just before WWI. ww1buff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
