21. PINS AND BUTTONS Administrative Precedents and Rulings On October 22, 1945, certificates and insignia were presented by the Chairman to all paid staff members at national headquarters who had served the organization for the full period from December 1941 through August 14, 1945. The fact that these insignia were awarded without charge in effect constituted a precedent in support of the vote of the National Committee on Insignia, Uniforms, and Awards authorizing free distribution of pins and buttons in recognition of World War II service, which was given effect by NHQ 76, dated January 7, 1946. These pins and buttons are intended for wear on ordinary dress only. They are not part of the uniform and cannot be worn with it.
