White Duty Belt W/ Brass

[O.R. Davis]

Gentlemen, I am trying to locate a white duty bet and brass like we used to wear @ Marine Barracks Naples Italy for Honor's Parade's. The belt is appx 2" wide. Any ideas? Thanks. Semper Fi! Sgt O.R. Davis Starkeeper07@yahoo.com

White duty belt? Do you mean a belt for your blues? Or do mean the flag harness? You can look online or pull up the site for the PX/NEX, they will have the belts and harnesses on there and should be able to ship them out to you quickly.

Those are current Dress Blue White Belts. The one I am looking for was used as a Pistol Belt with a diaper, for carring the 45 cal pistol, formerly used by MP's and Guard Detachments. It is appx 2" wide. It's similar to the canteen belt, except it has no holes. Thanks for responding. Semper Fi!!

We also wore white duty belts when I was in barracks duty. It looked like a white cartridge belt fitted with real brass. All attachments including a sword frog or pistol hoster slid on the belt. There was also a white bayonet sheath and chrome plated bayonet that went with it. You could probably look on E-bay for a white cartridge belt. They are out there and probably still in the supply system.

The pistol belts they have sound like what you need. You might have to find the solid brass buckle separately and put the 2 together. I hope this helps.

I know exactly what you are talking about. The belts either have all grommets, like the one shown at this website, or are plain, 'grommet-less' pistol belts that required a pistol hanger to go with the 'diaper' over the .45 holster.

We wore the non grommet style at Marine Barracks, Annapolis, with the NCO belt plate (EGA) and keepers.

That having been said, I've had several requests from folks who want one, and I've yet to find a decent place that supplies that particular thing. The best suggestion I can give is Ebay, and patience.

You may also try and contact the Marine Barracks directly, but I'm honestly not sure how well that will work out.

This is the only white pistol belt I ever remember seeing used during my time on active duty. There is also one of these belts that has the brass buckle you speeak of and during my time this was standard issue for MP's. Having had a supply MOS, I have personnaly issued many of these belts.

[Old Marine]

Oh Yea, the ones we had also had the EGA on the buckle.

[Native Warrior]

the S/NCO belt buckle with EGA is available at many military retailers or your local military clothing store onboard a military installation. You can buy the belt without the plain buckle from Marlow White company and add the S/NCO buckle to it.
