AlecH Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Picked up - a private purchase - Gebirgsjäger Mannschaft's Schirmmütze last week considering the age of the piece - coming up to around 70 years, its in remarkably good condition without a single moth hole. A bonus was on getting it home and having a bit of free time I found on the reverse side of the sweat band a green ink stamp - Gepruft. 3Kp. Geb. Jäg. Regt.100 which I find a nice additional touch, knowing which regiment the visor is from. Enjoy.
Paul R Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Stunning hat there! I have never seen such a marking. Is this a normal technique for this unit?
AlecH Posted August 12, 2012 Author Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) Paul, Thanks for the post. I can't really say, if this was normal technique for this unit. I did have a look through a large number of Gebirgsjäger Schirmmütze threads they have on WAF. Some of them did have Gepruft with unit number on the inside of the sweatband. However I don't recall any having exactly the same markings as mine. Regards Edited August 12, 2012 by AlecH
