31086. Tucker, Michael F. United States Army Cap Insignia 1902-1975. 2021. Dorrance Publishing. 292p. Stiff wraps. In the Twentieth Century numerous changes applied to the United States Army and its uniforms, in particular, the uniform cap and its insignia. Presented here are those changes in U.S. Army cap insignia during the twentieth century. Shown in photographs and words drawn from U.S. Government and U.S. Army archives, with dimensions and close-up images of insignia, a thorough history can now be revealed! With regards to this new research aid, John Adams-Graf (www.militarytrader.com) noted that “…Organized chronologically, the book not only illustrates the fronts and backs of eagle insignia, it delves into the slight nuances and variations while attributing to particular manufacturers and assigning a rarity level…With a foreword and endorsement by the preeminent US Army insignia scholar, Lt. Col (Ret.) William K. Emerson, United States Army Cap Insignia takes its place on the shelf of standard research material for any collector, student, or dealer of 20th century U.S. Army insignia and uniforms. It is one of the books you need to buy immediately before it becomes an “out-of-print” standard….” (M) $88.
