Nope x2. BTW, in the Navy the gold embroidery on the cap bill is called scrambled eggs. You don't wear them until you make at least O-7 (Vice Admiral). Unfortunately I never made it. Not even close..........  :yes:

Being a Navy Brat I have to say that as a Commander (O-5) or Captain (O-6) your dress uniform cover does have the basic "scrambled eggs". The more elaborate "scrambled eggs" are for Flag Officers (O-7+).

 

Regardless I wouldn't wear that without monetary compensation...

That's correct, forgot the USN O-5's did have a weak scrambled egg display, then they get progressively gaudier as they move up. Would be tough to top the USMC Commandant's lid though.   :yes:
