Herman Goering Div cap eagles help

[Toecutter]

These are on black background material,Goering Div?

[stonemint]

Yes, but they can also be for the LW mechanics cap (which was also black).

Thanks appreciate it!I thought they were different,not the usual blue gray.The style is a little different on these two, one has a more up tipped wings and a lighter color.

For reference, here is a mechanics cap from the legendary Ron R collection:

Aldo, yes, it is a LW mechanics cap--their caps were in black herringbone and did not utilize a cockade.

Mine also has maker stamp and Flak regt stamp. Mechanic attached to a flak regt I suppose ? Thanks for the info, Al

Yes Flak Personnel, Mechanics and Ground Crews wore them too, issued without a cockade....

Here is another one....
