Luft forestry scarcity

[JohnS]

Field Caps (overseas type) for Luftwaffe Forestry service are obviously something of a scarce cap.

The question is for those that have specialized in Luft headgear and have a feel for how rare..??

This weekend I saw my first ever example of a Luft forestry overseas with factory applied luft eagle and luft type cockade ( both insignias being made with a forestry green background cloth)

So, how unusual are these..scarce?...really scarce?..rare?....really rare?...

[Gene]

I would say very rare. I've only seen 2 for sale, and I bought one of them.

[Leroy]

I agree. I don't know if it was the other one Gene saw (), but I have one as well.

Hi Carles
Luft forestry = Forestry Service of the Luftwaffe.
This peronnel looked for the wooded and other "green" Luftwaffe areas. Its duty was the same like that of the civilian forestry service.
These caps mentioned here were worn from 1939 by lower ranks.
