    I apologize, I had not actually consulted the CRL and was speaking off the cuff.  We get these costumes so rarely I have not looked over the text in quite some time.

     

    And yes, I guess they're right.  Personally I'd have made that an L2 or L3 requirement, but between the plain text and the GML's marked up photos, yes, I would say the idea seems to be a row a stitching to support the code cylinders.  That means you'll want the stitching approx 9-10cm below the top pocket opening based on the size of the real dosimeters used in ANH, and where the clip hits the pocket.

    Thank you very much Kalani. I will follow your advice and make a stitching as mentioned and will come back to this post to keep you informend.

    ANH Staff Officer Tunic questions...

    Dear fellow officers,
    I'm currently in the process of approving regarding my Imperial Staff Officer Uniform (ANH). Unfortunately, I'm still missing a few seams on the tunic, which I can't find in the CRL either. I've attached a photo from my GMOs. Seams are missing in the areas highlighted in red. The image is very blurry, so I'm not sure what the exact alignment and spacing should be. Do you have any photos or suggestions for me?

    Thank you in advance.

    Andy

    Here you can see the project so far: Overlap on the shoulder stands out too far and a few additional imperfections. work in progress...

    Drat, I was afraid of that. :(  Officer hats are surprisingly tall.

     

    Putting your hats on their side like that is probably not the worst thing (better than anything that crushes them vertically), but still not ideal.  Back to the hunt... those cheap cardboard boxes from JoAnns (Michael's?) that I posted above are still the best option I've found, to date.

    You are right with the cardboard boxes, but I will give my new case a try on my next troop next month

    The case has been arrived today. What can I say? The height is too low to put an officer hat in without squeeze. The only solution, put it on the side. One of my hats is made of softer material (which is in the bag as shown in the photos) and can be placed on the side without being damaged.

    And yes, you can also but your SE14R in to it, incl. the holster.

    I've been trying to find that case!  I saw one in a random FB ad some time ago, but it was like free if you buy 5 baseball hats (nope) or $39 on it's own, so I sort of back burnered that project.  Do you have the link to it on AliExpress?

     

    Although I'll hold off ordering until you get yours and confirm an Imperial hat fits inside...

    Sure, no problem:https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005005577433251.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.67335c5fzTPpmM&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu
    I will report and send pictures as soon as possible.

    Thank you for sharing this! I'm not that far from your solutions, because I actually do the same thing except for the hat/cap. I got clothes bags that have a small compartment for a name tag, this way I can see from the outside what uniform it is. A thought that bothers me: Do I want to have bags and suitcases in an Imperial style, or do I want to have all the 501st stickers stuck on them (Detachment, Garrison, etc.). For me it's a mixture of both.
