linasl Posted August 14, 2020 Share #1 Posted August 14, 2020 Hello. I have two US Marine cap badges. Based on the photos, are these for an officer or enlisted? Is the gold one for dress uniform? Also, can you identify the era? Thanks for your help. Linas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonc Posted August 14, 2020 Share #2 Posted August 14, 2020 Not really the right place for this question, given that this is the area for chevrons/rank insignia, but you might want to check out this thread: The first two should look familiar to you.

themick Posted August 15, 2020 Share #4 Posted August 15, 2020 Both enlisted, and are the so called pattern 1937 emblems used until the late 1950s. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themick Posted August 15, 2020 Share #5 Posted August 15, 2020 Perfect place for the question. The title of this sub-forum is "Medals, shoulder sleeve, metal insignia......" These are definitely metal insignia. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are definitely metal insignia. Steve You may not have noticed below that, we are in the branch called "Ranks and Rates." There is a more specific area for USMC emblems called "Marine Corps EGA Discussion." Usually, posting in the most relevant place gets you to the most relevant information. All moot points, however, given that the OP has received multiple correct answers to his question. Nice WWII-KW barracks cover emblems, one for dress blues the other for the service uniform.

themick Posted August 16, 2020 Share #8 Posted August 16, 2020 Apparently I'm wrong. I plead guilty. Execute me. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
