Hi Smitty,
this is a little of topic from a specific viewpoint but I think it is relevant to the question posed by Eric;
Regarding the combat jump stars, I have always understood that whilst the adding of the stars was a widespread practice from WWII onwards it wasn't officially authorised until many years later. Is this correct and can you add specific facts concerning the authorisation?
I would ask the same about the "Arrowhead" device which I believe was added for the 'D' Day operation. Sorry if this is common knowledge to US collectors but it seems to have passed me by
Regards
Mark
