        I think that is a simply motorcycle cap, became from the civilian market... no military issue.

        I would own the navigator's cap instead !!!!!

        Cheers!

            Wasn't Julius Schrek wearing such kind of headgear while driving for the Fuhrer?

              Hallo!

              I have check the pic we're talking about... I think that the driver wore a us tanker cap or something else... Is visible the part that cover the neck and the press stud on side... Not camo covered hat anyway..

              Cheers!

                  I think that the cap you're talking about is a motorcyclist (or car driver) helmet...

                      Hi there!
                      During the Battle of the Bulge the german army have use lots of american stuff, like raincoat and so on... So the cap could be easily own to the us army... Isn't it?

                        Looks like your example is an exact match. What is it?

                          That's a US issue winter " helmet " designed to be worn under the Tanker crash helmet.

                            Sure! But I think was a 'liberated' us tanker cap by the ss Kubelwagen driver... Look at the post#8 .. it is not the same? Anyway could be a civilian type, not SS garnment for sure!

                              I knew I saw close up photo's somewhere, that's why you have to go keep up to date on all WAF threads!
                              Check this page for a good close up of the cap and an outstanding modeling display!
