    Hi,
    for sure you have more knowledge than me, but looking closely, the cross seems (to me ) too much thick for a "crusher" style cross..

      Ciao Giorgio

      Surely I don’t have more knowledge than you

      Simply, as you can see, I’m speaking about this true pattern (posts no. 17, 18, 19, 21/2, 22, 122, 152, 162, 200, 241):

      In the case of the visor of this thread, I’m speaking about this bad pattern (posts no. 40, 16, 17, 85, 150):

      http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...haplain&page=3

      http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...haplain&page=6
      http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...aplain&page=10

      In conclusion:

      - there may be some very rare embroidered cross (this is certainly not the case shown in this thread ...)
      - the normal flatwire crosses were certainly not intended for use on a visor

      In my humble opinion (I'm still waiting for others …) the cap's body can therefore be original (as Chris said: w/o the all-critical interior and under the hood pix, no way to confirm originality), but the cross (I hope only it …) is absolutely not original

      Best regards

            I found the hat that leads off this thread in my files.
            It was originally sold as part of a Konvolut, all attributed to the same individual.
            The photo was supposed to show the actual cap in wear, but no closeup was provided.

            Interesting that the "set" has been broken up:

                Hallo Chris

                If the konvolut is authentic, I read: Hans Karl Scher ... (first line); Wehrmachtpfarrer seit ... Div. Pfr. d. ... (three digits) J.D. and then follows a date (second line); d. ... (two digits) J.D. and then follows a date (third row).

                The photograph must have been taken roughly at the beginning of the war, considering the use of the belt strap. In any case, it seems to me that the visor is not the same. On the visor shown in the photography (which is strangely very dark though there are no visible shadows to cause such an effect) there are no chincords; the eagle is different (probably metallic); the intermediate object (the cross surely) is positioned equidistantly between the eagle and the oakleaves & cockade. Given the angle of the photography and its small size, this is the best I can do.

                Best regards

                  I have to add that the identification of this priest should not be impossible at this point for the experts of German divisional yearbooks. Maybe this time we can coordinate this thread with the other sections of the forum and bring out a good teamwork.
