-
Rank Insignia: Features immaculate red-on-gold Sergeant chevrons alongside two lower sleeve service stripes (Hash Marks), indicating 8 years of service. The inner pocket tag is clearly dated 1956.
-
The Trousers: Matching heavy blue wool featuring the legendary NCO red "Blood Stripe" down the outer seams. The heavy cotton inner waistband is ink-stamped "34 35".
