SICHERHEITSDIENTS

sorry,what do you mean when you said?(The chronology would seem to be that a dot was after the name until the outbreak of WW2. When H.M.S. alone was discontinued when War ended, for some reason the dot was not re-instated) my question:full stop behind ship name is the only method possible found in pre-war cap tallies or as you stated my hat is pre-war and ok for period without full stop behind the ship name? by the way i handle my H.M.S. WARSPITE cap tally is faded and made in silk and letters are yellow thread,i dont consider this cap tally was for HMS WARSPITE submarine(1965/91)as another person told me. if we suppose was used pre-war cap tallies full stop behind ship name for sure(and no possible without it for period)it would be possible beetween 1945 until 1947 when H.M.S. WARSPITE was scrapped for this ship the cap tally without full stop behind name ship as mine or what is your final determination with my hat and tally? thanks in advance

a person told me than all pre war and ww2 royal navy cap tallies had a full stop behind the ship name and cap tallies without full stop behind ship name are post-war and my question is:could anybody confirm or not this point of view or anybody who posted a ww2 period cap tally with no full stop behind the ship name?

a person told me than pre war and ww2 royal navy cap tallies had a full stop behind the name of the ship,an example would be H.M.S. WARSPITE. could you confirm this point or he is wrong? thanks in advance

in ww2 years for secrrity reasons cap tally in all royal navy ships was only H.M.S. and then from what period would be my hat early ww2 or years inmediatelly post war until 1947 shop was scrapped?

i would thank any help to know age about this royal navy sailor cap,dark blue wool made,H.M.S WARSPITE cap tally,maker label:JAMES FORSYTH LTD(st. Albans) somebody told me there were 9 ships called HMS WARSPITE in the royal navy history and i know during ww2 the cap tally used for all the ships was only H.M.S. for securirty reasons but i dont know nothing more about my new collection sailor cap age.... thanks in advance

hi morten nothing new about it,somebody posted in WAF an artillery(heer) visor cap with this logo and it had common points as mine and no others,a few collectors told me than real key is handle as did eduardo(KM-SPAIN) a few years ago and those collectors told me him is a real authority in KM items,finally i think will be so hard to have a final determination with this cap all the best fernando

thanks johnymac for these lessons and explanation to know further about those sailors caps :cheers: :cheers:

congratulations johnnymac.... :jumping: you did a great job with my hat...label is exactly as the example than you posted in the middle this time and so my hat is late 40,s!!!!!!!!!!!!! :beer: many thanks from spain

in my hat where number of contract is written:CONT.No.N 140(62236)57774 B and there i can not see none 52 but the label is the same than you show as korean war period,do you think is possible not to shown at any example as mine the year of contract?:P

my cap label is exactly how you show as korea war example and so do you mean my hat for sure with this label is from korea war period or this label may be was used later korea war? :unsure: :unsure:

another person stated to me those caps were used until mid year 1963 aprox.... i would like to see more members comments :beer:
