I have seen this one posted before (I believe) several years ago on maybe on this forum or perhaps the old GDC forum before the new set up...
I remember the buttons and a good bit of discussion.......actually a fairly large dealer was associated with that presention of the cap, but I can not recall the specifics right now.
Maybe a search would help.Comment

Was this cap offered and sold by "Relics of the Reich" or perhaps another dealer about 4 or 5 years ago?
ThanksComment

I also vaguely remember the hat. I liked it when I saw it posted some years ago. Now I don't know as there is more information on piped caps.

weird
Looks weird... a Waffen SS (NCO pattern) altes model cap with signals piping with added officers chin cords...
The chin cord buttons btw are Royal Dutch Army used on pre-war Shakos but also on post war Dutch visors (styled after WW2 British visor caps)
The chin cords and both insignia appear to be authentic
(eagle has lost its prongs obviously...) the rest is a BIG question mark to me...???Last edited by NickG; 08-14-2008, 11:18 PM.Comment

Nothing I'd want to see in that type of visor.
