Description
This is an original WWII U.S. Army garrison cap in khaki cotton material. No manufacturer's or size label could be located, however the interior is marked with both the laundry number and initials of its original owner, "S-7999" and "F.L.S.", respectively. Normally, this combination would make identifying the veteran relatively easy, however a cursory examination of the publicly available portion of the National Archives' enlistment records unfortunately reveals no exact matches.
Provenance
Private Collection, Dallas, Texas
Condition Report
This cap is in good condition, apart from some staining and the missing manufacturer's and size label.
