Need some opinions please

[DRK]

Hello fellow collectors

Can I have your opinion about this Feuerwehr overseas cap please ?
I like the cap , but it has a cloth "sweatband" which I have never seen before in an overseas cap.....and it bothers me....
But I have learnt to never say never.......
"Never seen before" doens't mean it was never worn or used that way.......

Post war Feuerwehr caps had a more Magenta piping , this cap has the bright Carmine piping as used on Third Reich Feuerwehr caps.....

Thanks for your opinions

Hi

Tricky one to comment on as I have never seen an overseas cap for the fire boys, but as you say never say never.

The one thing I will comment on is the lining/sweatband as I have seen this before on Army side caps so it is in my opinion a period feature.

Hope that helps a little.

cheers
