Alex K Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Hi Bob, I think I've said this before on the other threads, very nice hats, and those are some thick cap cords, (I like thick cap cords )regardsAlex.BTW who's the maker of the RK,?
Bob Lyons Posted May 28, 2009 Author Posted May 28, 2009 Hi Alex,Good timing, I was just about to turn the computer off for the night !Thanks for the nice words, yes I remember your earlier comments, same hats, I was just having a play with the camera this afternoon !The RK is a S & L type 'A', a nice early one without the flaw in the beading, and was awarded to Fighter pilot FW Otto Wuerfel of JG 53, sadlyhe was awarded this after going into Russian captivity and he never survived to see it, he died of Typhus in December of 1944.I have a few other photos of it posted in the Iron Cross (pinned) section of the forum.I think I can hear a cold beer calling me,Best wishesBob

Scott Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 Beautiful visors Bob. Love the small eagle - would that be an earlier cap than the other?
Bob Lyons Posted May 29, 2009 Author Posted May 29, 2009 Thanks guys.Paul, that is it for officer visors, only the two of them. (and the Generals of course).Scott, yes the small eagle is an early version of the visor cap from Erel, and this one also has their early address on thesweat diamond as well. (Voss Strasse).Bob
