Each star is attached with a central circular rivet. 1 star is above the point where the chain is first attached on the left side of the jacket the other two stars are above the two attachment points of the chain loop on the jacket's far right. 3 large silver stars below "BABY": they are 3-D (the cross-section of each "arm" of the star is a triangle-look at the photo).4 loops of chain-2nd from left is broken. Below "BABY," trim with silver-toned chain by the foot from hardware store.There are two short thin bones placed one above the other (like a broken vertical line) on the straight back of the first "B," a horizontal piece on the crossbar of the "A," and two tiny ones positioned like a "V" on the crook of the "Y." Meat Loaf confirms they are from a "skeleton keychain" on the DVD, almost certainly from the same keychain Eddie wears on his slingshot.

The broken chain seen in the film has been fixed in this photo), click here. A row of small star-shaped studs runs along the top of the shoulder seam (where the epaulets would be) on either side. A large star with a central pin (like the stars on the jacket back) is at the top front shoulder on either side.Sheriff's silver star on right breast, above the yoke studs. Small star stud at the corner of both top lapels. 4 star-shaped studs run down the left side (becoming 3 later in the scene when one falls off).

(The M42 has stamped edges the M35/M40 have rolled-under edges. Douglas Berry informs me it's the M42 style I have to check this, though it looks very much like an M42, M40 or M35. It has a couple of rivets and at least one hole that looks like an eyelet (it's an air vent). Silver chrome military helmet with black chinstrap
