quote:
During the Korean War, General "Lightning Joe" Collins, Chief of Staff for the Army asked a group of advisors what could be done to enhance the moral of the fighting Infantryman. It was decided that blue would be used to enhance the uniform of the Infantryman, so that everyone would know that the soldier was an Infantryman who would be fighting on the front lines. Blue plastic disks were placed behind the branch insignia and crossed rifles. A blue cord was created to be worn over the right shoulder of both officers and enlisted men. The new enhancements were first worn by the 3rd "Old Guard" Infantry Regiment.
Ok, what is wrong with this picture?????

V, that talks about the significance of the color blue but doesn't say how many knots or on the cord or if there is any significance to the number. For more information on Infantry blue check here.
