Luft Bergmutze with Trap Insignia?

[Jon S]

I searched the forum, but can't find any info. on whether or not LW Bergmutzen were produced with a trapezoid eagle and cockade in addition to the separate eagle and cockade. Thanks much for any info.

I thought so. Saw this and was wondering:

[billbert]

This might be an helferin cap..while it exhibits some traits..I wouldnt call it a luft bergmutze..too low a profile for 1.. Billbert

[ferdinandmax]

Here are two more, with a button and two buttons, I do not think they are Helferin, regards sergio

Not crazy about either of the 2 traps and they are both obviously replaced

Agree, it lacks grommets and has ear flap loops, a true Berg has grommets and no flap loops.
