The Sgt. is wearing an old M1910 mag pouch, all old gear and gas trap rifles... I'm wondering Eb, do you recognize the hat device? Doesn't look like the regular one?

It looks like a regimental unit device on the campaign hats. But that's long before my time. Unit crests were worn on the beret (stupid useless hat) when I retired.

Yes, 1940/41? I just thought it might be recognizable to you...maybe...
