Chapitas en Cascos de los Oficiales Americanos

[Alvar_g]

Estoy buscando por todos los sitios que me son posibles y Google y no veo nada.

¿Como llevaban las chapitas plateadas o pintadas según rango los oficiales y suboficiales Americanos en la Segunda Guerra en el casco?

Gracias.

solo llevaban una linea blanca detrás del casco, delante nada y menos según el rango
lo normal era una linea vertical de teniente para arriba, una horizontal un sargento

In WW2, U.S. Army officers had their M1 helmet's rear painted with a vertical white stripe and Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs) or "non-coms" had a horizontal stripe so those they were leading FROM THE FRONT could identify them and follow them while still having netting all around for camouflage. Today we have no such markings and not much of a lead-from-the-front ethos that needs to be corrected. Another problem is the many preventable "friendly fire" deaths we've suffered in Irag and Afghanistan. One way we can solve these problems would be by re-introducing a mark in the helmet back using glint, NPTT and a coded infared marker light when the helmet cover has the Simons coverTM sewn on the front.

Aún así era muy frecuente tapar la línea o llevar un casco normal para evitar francotiradores.
