Description

/US Army Collar Disk 118th CT,Type I,gilt,post ww1 ( 1924 - 1937).
Once the war ended the dress blue uniform was not restored for general use but for many the service uniform was too drab. The solution was to use gilt collar disks rather than bronze ones. Previously, gilt disks had been approved in situations were troops were wearing white dress uniforms and certain other situations. Army Regulations AR 600-35 of October 14, 1921 stated that collar disks might be bronze on service uniforms and gilt on white uniforms. On November 25, 1924 the bronze disks were dropped for peace time use on all uniforms
