Luftwaffe Medical EM/NCO Visor Cap

[TWS]

This one has a couple "minuses" to it's condition, due to a restitched visor and some mothing. However, definitely less common than a Flak or Flight/FJ piped visor, so I thought I'd post it up. The restitch on the visor does not use the first row of holes and seems very precisely done, so it makes me wonder if it could have been a factory goof and was redone on the spot. I would think it someone were to restore a detached visor, they'd use the original holes. (?)

I think this is the first Luft medical visor I have ever seen. No perfect as you note, but still nice.

LW Medical (in any condition) are actually quite rare, due to the smaller size of the LW, and the smaller need for medical personnel (as compared to the army).

An uncommon cap for sure!
What size is the cap Todd?
Is it possible that the visor was earmarked for a larger cap, and was utilized for this one instead?
The stitch holes that are not being used appear that they would fit a larger diameter cap.

Ah, darn. I already packed it back away. I'd say it's a 56 or 57 by the way it fit on the styrofoam head.
That's actually a great observation about the stitch holes.
