Check out Zouave button. I do believe this to be the correct name for your type button shown. Also called Ball button......could have been used by West Point Cadets but is the same as a few I've dug around here in CW Camps sites.

Zouave is the type.......that's my final answer!
Nice Find, Keep Up The Good Work Ms. John!
Continued Good Luck, HH, Roger
