    Peaked Cap - Soviet Aviation

    I am sure this is all very straight forward for you guys, but what exactly is this hat? I am pretty sure that it is aviation related, but is it Civilian or Military and what rank would it relate to? Thanks for all and any help given. Cheers, Torsten.

      Looks like a "Valued up" but destroyed Railway's Cap with Army, Air Force and Navy Insignia. The Strap was used by all 3 Branches.
      Wings - AF
      Cap Badge - Army for Parade
      Visor Attachment - Navy, sometimes used on Army Caps, like for the Conductor of an Army Band.
      To get money for it, sell it on a Fleamarket and tell them you don't know what it is, or sell everything seperately. That's what I do when I get such Caps.

          I would recommend you to change the insignias to railroads and sell as a spiced up railroads cap. If you want the insignias, I can help.

            The Problem are the holes in the Visor.

              Yes - if he choose to remove the leafs. If they are left there it would be a spiced-up cap rather than a cap with holes in the visor

                Thanks for the offers to help guys. Much appreciated , however, I will leave it as is and put up for sale ... but I will describe what it is and will not faint ignorance ... not the way I work I am afraid. If I know what it is then I will say so and describe it as such ... Cheers, Torsten.
