My newest cap, and a special thanks to Tony and Ben who helped me.
She hasent arrived yet. But the sellers photos are and will be much better then mine.

Hope you enjoy! I might have her restored a bit.



Cheers, Pat

A fine cap, Pat. This is your first combat branch, right?

You are on your way to having a very nice cap collection. Happy hunting buddy!

[Woolgar]

Congratulations Pat, what a super addition to your collection

Nice one Pat.

Get it on a headform once you have it.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks lads, I am delighted with this cap and the help I got.

Ade - Sadly I cannot, I have not the space to display it without it being baked in the sun and the moths having a party. But I am working hard on figuring out a way to display my caps.
Thanks for changing the title to use the correct terminology, somthing I should have done but forgot.

Cheers, Pat

Hi Pat, best thing then is a cardboard cap box and pack it with acid free paper. The peak looks rather stressed in those pics. It does not do them any good long term like that.

Cheers, Ade.

[M18922]

Thanks Ade, I will be ordering some acid free paper soon, and will go hunting for some boxes.

Cheers, Pat

Great advice from Ade.
I remember the fealing when I first got my Infantry officers bill cap. Kind of a warm feeling in the mid section.
Great find friend.
