tredhed2 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Some news. A chevron expert reported to me, re: post #2 ..."Of the eight 10-inch-wide 1872-pattern chevrons shown, one (Post QM Sgt.) appears to be authentic. The rest are strictly bogus. Fake blue fields with the QM quill and key have been attached to authentic bars (stripes) for various branches of the service. None of those ranks existed"..... They are the chevrons marked "unofficial". Member, ASMIC.Editor, ASMIC's The Trading PostASMIC Executive VP Link to post Share on other sites

There are a few other pieces that are not original. https://www.ebay.com/str/worldwarpatches If you can't stand behind our troops stand in front of them! https://www.worldwarpatches.com Link to post Share on other sites
Major Z Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I collect strictly QM items. How will you be selling these items? I will not ask for a private sale but I'm just wondering how to be prepared. Did this collection belong to David Olson by chance? Thanks. WANTED: I collect materials of any age related to the US Army Quartermaster Corps and from the long-defunct Commissary / Subsistence Corps. Anything goes and it doesn't have to be identified to a vet. If it's weird or unusual, please PM me! ASMIC #5650 Link to post Share on other sites
