82nd AB Impression help>!!!

[m1guy]

Hey guys.,

OK A friend of mine his father was an officer in the 82nd AB And being the kinda person I am I just totally forgot his regiment .

But he would like me to do an impression of his father mainly it would be for display becuz i'm 16.. but his grandfather was 19 and a 2 Lt . Something bout being in the right place at the right time is how he got the rank. but I would like to put together a class C impression.. I have full sets of "pinks and greens" I have several EM uniforms.. but I'm thinking Regular wool pants Officers garrison cap, Khaki officers shirt and jumpboots and on the shirt would be rank crossed rifles on collar jump wings on chest and rank on hat?

Does this sound correct.. ANd the khaki shirt is actually the dress tan or what evr shirt.


Thanks Will.

Crossed rifles on left collar, rank insignia on right collar and left side of cap. Don't forget the parachute patch on the right side of the cap either. And use the kahki tie, the black tie is pre- and early WWII.
