"US Army Cap Insignia 1902-1975" explores the complete evolution of the metal cap badges worn by officers and enlisted men of the United States Army from 1902 till 1975. For the first time, manufacturers, design variations, measurements, business advertisements, and period photographs are included in one book illustrating the history and progression of the US Army's metal cap insignia. All information is gathered from Federal and State government archives, US Army regulations, manufacturer’s records and advertising, universities, and relevant period articles and books. Subjects also include Warrant Officers, Enlisted Men, Women in the Army, Army Transport Service, Army Service Corp, the Army Transport Command, and more. Footnotes relevent to all information are provided throughout the study. The book is hard cover, large format 11 inches by 9 inches and 300 pages in length.  Below are sample spreads from the book. I am out of books but you may order it by contacting dorrancepublishing.com
