    KM officer sidecap for review

    Hi!

    I've been offered this KM officer side cap from a forum member, and apart from the fact that I like it one member whom I trust pointed me that some details he does not like.
    I just want to be sure before I pay (as we all do, of course).

    What do you guys think?

        This one is mine. Picked it up in Munich back in the 70's at the floh markt. Compared it to Bundesmarine caps and no comparison with the West German Naval side cap. Soooooooooo, if not BM, you are saying not KM, then what is it?

          Sorry for your cap, but take the problem in the right way.

          The question is good KM making or not ?
          Found in the 70's with a fake cocade !!

          Best regards,

          Michel

            Michel, can you be more specific on why this is not a period KM officer hat. As we all know, insignia was removed and replaced after the war all the time on both uniforms and hats. KM Spain, can you weigh in on this one? The hat does not react to black light at all regarding insignia.

              Before someone else reply, you could post a better photos.
              Maybe to post a photo of a cap laying flat, so we can see the cut, as from the one on mannequin head it looks strange.

                Hello, sorry Kondor but I agree with Michel about this one, IMO not original. I also don't like the insignias.

                      The cut is really strange, I must say.
