    First World War British Officer's Forage cap

    Recommended Posts

    In the spirit of the First World War Centenary, I would like to share my British Officer's Forage cap with the group. The cap is interesting in its own right (especially for a cap collector) but what makes it even more special and rare is the fact that it belonged to an Officer who served in the Royal Flying Corps.

    A brief overview of the Officer: Captain Tosswill was commissioned into the Worcesters in 1914. He served in France and was wounded at the Battle of Festubert. After recovering from his injuries back in England he was seconded to the RFC in 1916 where he remained until the end of the war.
