A Luftwaffe mechanics black work cap for some show and tell. These caps were also used by Flak crews.
They were never issued with a cockade, simply had the black backed eagle sewn to them. The eagles come
up for sale reasonably regularly, and generally are sold as 'HG Panzer' eagles. ... The eagles could indeed
also be used for the black Panzer Luftwaffe caps, but more of these types of caps existed than the Panzer examples.
These caps always make me think of the film "Great Escape" and Werner the Ferret.
Very nice example.
Cheers, Ade.
