I am wondering what your opinion of this cap is. Im looking to do my best to identify maker, name and rank. I'm not seeing a maker that lines up real well with this one on the forum. Any help and info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Tim

Your visor is for a Unteroffizier ( NCO ) of Flight or Paratroopers, and the name looks like Josef Heuke. By the way that's a very nice hat.I'm sure one of our experts can tell you more than I.

Thanks sir. I would like to find a tunic some day for it.

I am with Shemp H - yet I read Henke as the name (and, if it didn't say "Uffz", it could also be for a EM). It was made by a "Lago" (Landeslieferungsgenossenschaft), let me quote Adrian Stevenson:
The cap was made by "Lago Berlin" This was a consortium of small tayloring shops who combinded their efforts in order to compete for contracts from the Armed Forces.
Cap is in "stonemint" condition.
Thanks a lot. I have been going through the forum trying to figure maker out. I also have been trying to get the name. I have tried yosef and josef henke. I picked the cap up because of the great condition and the name.
Thanks again Tim.
Very nice cap. Looks good to me.
Name is Josef HENKE. 'Uffz.' = abbreviation for 'Unteroffizier'.
