Reforger Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Finally got a V hat badge. Has anyone seen one just like this before? At first I thought the green on the front was verdigris, but someone may have actually colored it green at some point. Link to post Share on other sites
268th C.A. Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I dont think there was a set pattern for these cap badges, I have seen so many different styles of eagles, it becomes like EGA's there are too many different styles as the makers had different opinions of what they wanted. Short wings, spread wings, longer necks...just as there are with the 101st patches. Maybe some one, one day will write a book. Pvt. James H. Honey 1st Md. Eastern shore Vol. Inf. Co.

Bluehawk Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Just curious... IS there a USMF or ASMIC collector who specializes some major part of their collection on these?
