German Army Peaked Caps (Part 1)

[Bob Lyons]

I thought this old article from the very first issue of the 'Militaria Magazine' Issue Number 1 from February 1994
might be of some interest. This was the first issue to be published in English instead of their normal French issues.

Sadly the magazine stopped publishing the English versions some years back, and some of the information here is
probably a bit dated, but still very interesting....

As this is posted here for discussion, I hope it isn't breaching any copyright issues...

Regards

I used to have the french originals - the series went on with LW and SS. This was one of the first great and affordable sources with cap interiors etc. shown.

Bob, your making me realize I am old--I cannot believe that was published 30 years ago....

Yeah for sure Stoney, a fair bit of water under the bridge since these mags were published.
