yugoslavian beret help required

[James C]

i recently picked up this 20 year old yugoslavian army beret to add my serbian insignia ,my research has shown this rank is for a soldier within the air force or air defence ,would any body know if this green beret is correct for the insignia or was different colour beret used ,also when mounting the insignia am i right in saying to push the bolt through the hard backing ,there appears to be no way inside this to cover the wearer forehead from the sharp bolt and locking nut ,any help appreciated thanks james

i imagine the serbian air force might of used a blue beret as in the norm for other nations but can only speculate as for this green beret ive hopefully sourced an original soldier's ground force beret badge ,at least then i have the option for a complete and acurate beret

[James C]

well the ground troops insignia badge arrived today ,im still yet to mount it on the beret but for the photographs have placed it
