Hi Team,
Just a quick posting to show a pair of m40's that were manufactured by the same maker, same year, but one slightly older than the other. One pre-RB#, the other post RB# introduction. Interesting

Mark

very nice caps,,,i love DAK items...
Hello Mark,
Those are nice caps...
Interesting to see how they kept the initial pre-RBNr marking just adding the latter when it was adopted. It looks like hidding their name/location was not a priority for this maker.
The second cap shown in this thread, and many other caps of which a majority of soutached examples can be seen in the article about tropical caps co-signed by Mark and myself and published in the July issue of the french Militaria Magazine (300th issue).
Here's a link to a WRF thread that shows some photos of reconstructions taken for the article. Some were used, some not :
