    Erel Luftwaffe Officers Visor Hat

    Nobody seemed to like the HG Div overseas I recently listed for discussion. Lets see how you guys like this hat I just picked up. To me it's a so called "textbook" Erel visor with original attached insignia. It is dated under the sweatband. Lets see how good you guys really are. Who can come the closest to the exact date? It has month and year.

    Note: I still think my HG hat is real. Officer piping exactly like the visor. People say its fake because it has a "fake" eagle, which is stone dead under a black light [as is the whole cap]. So, somebody used all original materials, constructed it perfectly, but used a "fake" eagle because they couldn't find a common original one. If they knew so much about how to construct a perfect Luft officers cap, why would they add a soutache? I'm sure you will all still say it's fake and thats ok. I'm still waiting to see an "original" HG Div officers overseas..... It seems nobody has one [but me], lol

    I'll show the pic of visor date later after I see some educated guesses. We'll see who wins...

    You guys are the best, funny too!

                So you want us to authenticate the cap for you even though you are withholding the fact that their is a date stamped on the back of the sweatband?

                Ok, fuc it, it says April 1943.

                              Well, nobody even hit the right year but Renaud from France was the closest. I guess he wins the "King of Caps" Correct date is May 9, 1941. DonC was a close runner up.
