Chris Pittman Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I wanted to share some photos of one of my favorite hats. This is an early cap with the early white on gray insignia. I enjoy this cap a lot because it has a lot of character and it is like a sort of "time capsule", I am sure it is just as it was when it was issued and worn before WWII. I welcome any comments, I would also be interested in seeing other hats with this insignia combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Pittman Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) The maker mark has become faint from wear. The safety pin has absolutely been there forever! Edited June 29, 2008 by Chris Pittman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Pittman Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) Lat photo. The cap has a sewn-in name tag and a unit stamp that is hard to decipher. J.R. 55 or 56? Edited June 29, 2008 by Chris Pittman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
