Found info on it.  What a forum!  

Nice jacket. The grade shown by the sleeve knot is major. Before 1975 the braids in the knot were: Colonel = 5 rows Lieutenant colonel = 4 Major = 3 Captain = 2 1st lieutenant = 1 2nd lieutenant = no knot    The branch device was worn in the angle under the knot, or in the corresponding place for 2LT. After 1975 the multi-row knot was replaced by one with a single thicker braid, with rank instead of branch insignia below. Jackets already in possession with the old pattern sleeve ornamentation were allowed to be worn indefinitely.  

Two recently found USAF White Mess dress uniforms. One is an unnamed Lt Col. and the other has foreign/fake general shoulder boards, but does have a name. I'm still trying to figure out to whom the uniform originally belonged, as the golden letters are difficult to read; James A. Kaczmarek maybe? Enjoy!

Thanks in advance to all that respond to this post. I saw this Navy officers Cap badge on eBay and while not familiar with Pancraft I wanted to know if this is actually a WW2 badge. I appreciate any insight from the forum experts if this an authentic badge before I consider buying.

Thanks again for the input on the Raider patch. There is currently a wool Raider Casper patch on eBay that is $210 that looks right to me. (I've attached photos) I don't mind the price if the opinions of the forum experts are that its real.
