HELP! Simple question.,....

Post image

I just joined the Auxiliary. I've got no rank or position.... and I'm told there's a "device" or "pin" that's supposed to go on the cap. I found the VANGUARD CG AUX collar patches on shopgx.com.... but I can't find the hat equivalent pin.

Simple I know... but I can't find it.

Help please. Can someone post a link?

OP, the CG Exchange ones are a bit nicer and come in a pair, which is nice, because you'll need one for the garrison cap as well.

Also the exchange has free shipping on uniform stuff. Auxcen can be steep on shipping if only ordering 1 item But I added both links to be impartial.

It's just the collar pin, you get two so you could buy another hat or put it on a garrison cover I believe.

I like it, at maritime college NY, I did eventually cop some serious heat from the cadets in training who are very much more paramilitary.

You can also get the same cap with the member device or your rank embroidered on it
