The eagle looks kinda like a NSFK eagle.But if it is it shouldn't be on a black kepi.

This style of cap with a buckle on the front reminds me of photos I've seen of boys in uniform -- HJ or DJ. Those among us who have studied the NSDAP youth movement may be able to add more detail.

The RZM tag on the inside has the diamond for the HJ and also says Mutze for the HJ DJ so I think Br James is correct. Someone just added this eagle later. It should have an HJ diamond on it. Most had one stitched on, maybe it's under that eagle....?

Wanted to add, when you look at the Kreissieger eagle, it looks a lot like this one only with different wreath in it's claws. Just never saw an HJ cap with an eagle like this.

Was looking for this photo, which has been posted at the HJ-forum. But you were quicker Stonemint.
Piping goes with an eagle and not a diamond, if I remember correctly!

Many thanks to Eric, Stonemint and Wim -- I am vindicated in my own mind!!

Cheers, friends,
