Technical issue on NCO visor cap chinstrap

[aterrasse]

Dear All,

A technical question for those experts in the field.

Having had a careful look at all my NCO WH visor caps, I noticed that one of them had a black chinstrap which, although similar in shape and appearence to all the other was not made of leather but rather a kind of ersatz material (like a thick and stiff laquered cloth).

Is it normally found on such caps?

Thank you for your help

Alex

Such ersatz chin straps are quite normal, in fact. They are sometimes vulcanfiber, as is the peak, itself.

No problem there!

Thank you gentlemen for your expertise. I think that you have answered my question and put my mind at rest.

If anybody has anything else to add, please feel free.

Kind regards
