Description
This is an original WWII German M42 Heer enlisted man's feldmütze cap. This cap is constructed of feldgrau wool, with the iconic rayon (artificial silk) lining. It features integrated ear covers, fastened by two pebbled buttons, with one grey painted ventilation grommet on each side. The front is decorated with its original trapezoid Heer insignia. Interestingly, the cockade portion of the insignia appears to have been intentionally cut away. The cap's interior exhibits a size marking and production date of "56" and "1943", respectively.
