    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Once you guys sort out the button angle issue, then we can figure out how many angels can dance on a button. I know that sounds dismissive, but until we find a USN or US government document or something which sets out the button angle I'd be willing to bet that differences are due to bored...
