Yeah I think those patches must be a Rank Identification of sorts. One more question to everyone: Are we sure that box on the strap on the poster helmet is an E-11 clip? It looks to straight to be a cut down sterling magazine

i also believe it's some kind of magazine. u can see one side has a indented half moon shape, and the other side has a extended halfmoon shape like the bottom of the mag
i am willing to bet the cylinder under the mag is a flash light

I'm also thinking that the box is a magazine, and the cylinder is a flash light. The bands around the helmet remind me of the rubber bands used by the US Marines in Vietnam.

The rubber bands reminded me on the rubberbands from the endcaps of our MILAN - anti tank guided missile.
Those of us that fired a real one kept the bands for our helmets. :cool

Not convinced it is a Sterling (E-11) mag either.
elr02k - those patches are discussed in the Star Wars Costumes: The Original Trilogy book - the three columns are supposed to represent - Division / Brigade / Regiment - according to John Mollo the costume designer for ESB.

One of the things I'm loving most about Rogue One is that they are bringing back found items in the film! Its just awsome!

Nice sketch! Some cold weather helmets don't have front vent holes. You could start with one of those and cut your own custom ones in.

Unfortunately a lot of the "original" style costumes have been updated with current military issue gear and accessories instead of the vintage WW2 used in Ep 4-6.
