Hi Chuck,
in my opinion this is an visor cap for US Merchant Marine Engineer Officer.
I believe that caps of this type were used until the 1960s, I am not an expert on this subject, but I believe, for the construction characteristics, it is a realization of the WW2 period.

Roberto thank you for the reply, i had been trying to figure this one out for some time and had not been able to find other examples. Now i have more to go off of and research. My older buddy has no clue how to post on forums etc and was unsure of what to offer it as. Now that i know more i can do further research.thank you once again!
