Hi,

These have just arrived, let me know your thoughts.

Kuban 1

All appear to be OK. Cloth/backing plates were not sold with 57er Campaign Shields. That being stated, the full size shields were not authorized for wear on BW uniforms, only on a ribbon bar. So, the full size shields produced, would be for civilian attire wear, and based upon photo evidence almost anything goes with vets in civilian cloths/awards.

The upper prongs on the 57er Kuban shield are normally oriented in a horizontal manner.

Best,

Jeff

Again, all seem ok, the cloth and backing plate on the last Kuban could be vet added, don't look like the dubious backings we sometimes see!!
