Hi Nick,
thank you for your additional information on the aguillettes. It is true that, especially in the contemporary Japanese movies on the pacific war, not too much study was spent on historic correctness in uniforms. But then we can hardly blame the producers when the oroginal wartime pictures sometimes showed officers wearing their aguillettes incorrectly too. Here pictures where admiral Itoh wears it correctlystraight under the collar, but Captain Kami wears it like your modern movie pictures. Regards, pieter
