After careful consideration Ive decided to rep the 82nd 504th but had a question in regards to the m43 uniform. What was the policy in regards to unit insignia on the 43 for the 82nd airborne? I have seen many pictures with units running no unit insignia at all but wasnt sure if this was practiced by the 82nd. If anyone could clarify that would be a big help.

Rank,from what I could tell was minimal,for obvious reasons..
