Default RAAF slouch hat Badge question.
Recently picked up a 1944 dated slouch hat with the RAAF puggaree with the blue fold. I was thinking of putting a cap badge on the front. The badge I have is on lugs and I don't fancy making holes in the hat or pug.
My question is, does the RAAF badge ever come fitted with a slider ?

Thanks

Graham.

I have never seen one with a slider.

I suspect the answer will be no.

Haven't seen one with a slider before. Personally I'd leave it as is, very nice period slouch hat. Thanks for sharing.
