Post Your Fire-Related Headgear!

[stonemint]

I thought we had a thread dedicated to the headgear of the Fire-Related Organisations of the Third Reich, but apparently we never did one.

So, if you have any M-43's, visors, Schiffchens, or other soft headgear of either the Freiwillige Feuerwehr, Berufsfeuerwehr, or Feuerschutzpolizei, please post them here.

I will start off with a recent pick-up that I am really happy about. This is actually a very rare visor for Feuerwehr that was only worn for about a year during the Third Reich. I call it the M-1933, and it was superceded in 1934 by the new regulations requiring the use of the M-1934 first style Police eagle.

Most of these M-33 visors had their cockades removed and replaced with the M-34 eagle. Not this one--the Prussian cockade is original to the hat.

Note the lighter Prussian blue wool body. Maker is one I had never seen before, using the logo of the Prussian Garde Regiments, "Suum Cuique" (to each his own):
