DougD
so then, could we say lapel brass leaves were manufactured according to the lapel´s cut? Could have happened, but I think that would be rather difficult to do. insignia weren´t supposed to be manufactured customly in a general basis, were they?
I really think it has to do with the manufacture year. We may both be right or wrong :p

BTW, a may-be M55 Air Force General´s cap:

Re: M1955 Uniforms and Insignia!

Insignia can vary simply by who made it, where, and when.

Here are two guys in their grays...

That´s another proof that these uniforms are the nicest:). Not even uniform change regulations could against them. Simply irresistible:love
BTW, when in 1958 were these uniforms completely changed?
