Yes the hidden white stitching is also white. But the hat is just so worn out with many holes. but i think the stitching on the inside is a slightly different color cant recall.
ill have to check when i get home.

The color of the stitching is just from being a hard used field worn cap..Billbert

The double stitching around the crown and the lack of double stitching around the scallops strikes me as a bit peculiar.

I Tryed it under my black light and the stitching didn’t glow nor did the cap.

What's the inside and front of the cap look like? Is there a provision for a metal ss cap skull button up front ? Picture from waf

And of course , it's not a Heer side cap cut ...

It doesn't have a hole in the front that i can tell.
Im not sure i will have to look , so are you thinking that it is SS ?

[GAMS1]

It does have the typical SS-VT cut on the top and no grommets ...
