[STUPA216]

Good evening gentlemen,

This cap was recently found by the daughter of a Panzer Regiment 1 veteran. It was found among his things as she was cleaning out his house.

Kurt,

These are being made in China and are available at Wal-Mart. I bought three and probably should have picked up a few more to give to friends. Ha ha, couldn't help myself, its a beauty of a panzer M-43. You don't usually see them with the markings that clear...come to think of it, you usually don't see them at all. A nice find and I'm sure you have the name of the former owner. Congratulations.

Nice hat!

The liner through me off a bit. Not something I've seen on a black M43 {not that i've seen that many good ones) before. But I have seen the same lining material on Fieldgrey M43s. Everything seems like it fits. Personally I like it.WR Jim

hat size = 57

oh I mean this another number is this rb nr with the company name

I personally like this cap, but I think I'm like Scott: Why is there a company name in connection with an RB number? I thought the whole point of the RB system was to maintain security. Or was this not strictly enforced?
