Applying Bevo Insignia to M43 Field Cap

Whats the best or easiest way to apply a Bevo insignia to an M43 field cap? I have an m43 without insignia. Should I hand sew or should I just use fabric glue? And which is the easiest type to apply, the triangle shaped or capital t insignia?

NO NO NO TO FABRIC GLUE... Just take your insignia of your choice to a embrodery/sewing/tailer shop, show them exactly where to sew the item.Either are eqasy to a shop seamtress, but remember to fold the top edge underneath first. hard to explain, but collectors will expand this

I don't really feel comfortable taking it to a local tailor. Is there a service that does this online that I could send it to?

Are they? I thought their website was just updated on 7/3/17? And his facebook page shows pics of his recent projects ( sewing stuff for his clients etc) dated 9/5/17. I could be mistaken though, do correct me if I'm wrong

Here's their facebook post: https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_ ... _tn__=%2As
