    Opinions needed on Luft Tropical OS Cap

    Hey guys, last time I looked at headgear I realized that these are getting faked really well. I have a couple of different ones that I will be posting for review.

    This thread of on a Luftwaffe tropical EM OS cap I have. It looks unissued and unused. Insignia has khaki colored backing/edge for the tropical headgear. No blacklight glow on any insignia. Exactly One (1)..I mean ONE thread in the crown that I can't explain that glows. Nothing else glows!

    Opinions?

    Thanks in advance!
    Ken

                Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
                teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.

                    These caps are accepted by a few and questioned by the rest. A search in this forum and the FJ forum for 'Berolina' will educate you as to the debate on these caps.
                    As for me, i have one with the other stamp, and i like it just fine.

                      Another mint cap with another faint stamp and another eyeless eagle. If anything, these caps are extremely consistent. Would like to see one of these inkstamps imprinted dark and boldly.


                      Mark, may we see the marking in your cap?

                        Certainly John, see this thread where Gene kindly posted pics of my Berolina for me. http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...light=berolina

                          Thanks for the link Mark. Here is another example of the accepted Berolina stamp. This one is dated 1942, the same date as the caps which are in question..... yet not the same stamp.
                          Also notice how boldly this stamp is inked.
