SPC Miles Blackman7320744<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I'm helping a friend replace her Cav hat and spurs that were stolen and destroyed by an ex-husband, I've been able to replace her spurs with an original pair of pre-WWI spurs that were worn by a US Cavalryman and I'm going to get a hat at our local Western store and it shaped as it needs to be. But I need to see what the hat cords need to look like with the campaign knots showing to combat tours and what they use for the branch of service, is it the Officer's lapel pin or is it something else? I need an Engineers Castles for her hat. I can't go to a clothing sales store to get any of this and my sources for hat cords all seem to have only one size and her size is under size 7. Can someone here point me in the right direction?Can someone here help me find the missing pieces that I need for a Cav hat?2021-10-14T16:36:59-04:00SPC Miles Blackman7320744<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I'm helping a friend replace her Cav hat and spurs that were stolen and destroyed by an ex-husband, I've been able to replace her spurs with an original pair of pre-WWI spurs that were worn by a US Cavalryman and I'm going to get a hat at our local Western store and it shaped as it needs to be.

That and the branch can determine which cord she can wear. If you have any military surplus store they might have what you are looking for. I don’t know if the cords are size specific. I had mine done at the cowboy store on Hood. The chord can be yellow for enlisted to make it simple. Maybe try online like Ranger Joes.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Oct 14 at 2021 6:26 PM2021-10-14T18:26:30-04:002021-10-14T18:26:30-04:00SSG Roger Ayscue7321235<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a target="_blank" href="https://www.vanguardmil.com/pages/search-results-page?q=%22hat+cord%22">https://www.vanguardmil.com/pages/search-results-page?q=%22hat+cord%22</a><br /><br />They should have everything you need.
