Heer EM M43 cap - (maker RB number 0/0487/0002)

[PaulW]

Hi, have mainly focused on Luftwaffe uniforms in recent times, but have a weakness for the M43 cap and late-war uniforms generally. Picked it up from Mike Davis at the Virtual Grenadier.

Great service and communication as usual.

Adding the pictures Mike kindly sent in case the link is deleted at some point in the future.

Regards, Paul

Hello,
A nice and clean example of Einheitsfeldmütze made in what is in my opinion one of the worst wools produced during the war.
Congrats for your purchase and thanks for sharing it...
Thanks

A good one sir.

[harryamb2]

nice one.

[PaulW]

Thanks all! The trouble is I think one day it will need an M44 field blouse to keep it company!

After the usual annoying delay in UK customs (!), it has it's new home. Displaying with a late war belt and (B & N 43) buckle with the late-war blue-grey 'einheitsfarbe' finish.

Best regards, Paul

Thanks Bob! I've gone full circle, started out collecting Heer in the 70's, seeing the appeal again.

Best regards, Paul
