Re: identify this black felt cap
Looks like a Luftwaffe garrison cap, but I am no expert

Re: identify this black felt cap
Hi Frenchy, it is Russian! A Red Navy officers pilotka, I think?
Size 57, made in Moscow in 1941.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: identify this black felt cap
Hi Frenchy, that was a real bargain!
It should have a wreath in gold with an Anchor plus the Red Star as a cap badge. Sorry I don't have a pic to show.
I am sure Dimas will have one to show you. I am moving the thread to the Soviet section now.
Cheers, Ade.

Agreed, a very nice navy pilotka hat, but as I will be at home will place the cockade for it.
