    Hi James,

    See below for a chart that will help you identify the units for your collar tabs (chart is from “The Allies Forces in Italy 1943-45” by Guido Rosignoli). The eagles are collar insignia denoting staff college graduates. The two triangular tabs with the eagles are unknown to me.

    Regards,
    Tony
