Bruce,
Thank you for the reply.
I have a few questions
1) What does NCO mean?
2) Was it common to be a Saddler and not wear a Saddler badge?
3) Was there an insignia of Private?
Thank you again
Jim

Jim:
While saddler was an official NCO position (since Rev War times), the
insignia was not. If worn, it looked like a round-bottomed toy with a
handle. Try this:
