Default 17/21 Lancers Off Service Dress cap n°1
Hi

I have this 17/21 Lancers Off Dress cap.

Generally speaking, it looks good to me: all cloth parts are well made and coherent, side brass buttons are present.

The chin strap is a plastice one

But what about the cap badge?

Would you tell me if it is a good or...a wrong one ?

Thank you in advance,

Hi Jerry

Thank you for your opinion

Yes, it would be frosted silver.

Is the system with 2 lugs for attaching the cap badge compliant with an officer ones?

Yes - lugs are correct for the No 1 Dress cap.
