Kriegsmarine German made KM Overseas Caps?

[Gene]

I was wondering if owners of German made Kriegsmarine overseas caps could post pics of their examples? I am looking for a German made example but I need to know what to look for. Thanks to all--

Let me know if you want to any specific info on stiching, etc. I'm no expert but have these 2 to look over.

The first is a French made one already discussed a bit under "U-67 Side Cap" in the thread

Here's the second. It too has been on a different thread before.

Thanks a lot, I have seen many French examples but would like to look over some German made ones--

Gordon,

I just posted my five KM caps to the link above, including two (German-made I believe) enlisted overseas caps.

Thanks Bob.

Here's an interesting aspect a lot of folk probably aren't aware of, but on genuine officer OS Caps, the joint in the braided piping is often not at the centre of the back of the cap, but to the rear of the right hand flap.
