zephyr4 Posted 15 June , 2019 Share Posted 15 June , 2019 I have just acquired this cap and would like any information about the cap. One thing I have noticed as you look from above the rim is slightly oblong not round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoon Posted 15 June , 2019 Share Posted 15 June , 2019 (edited) Hello, The cap badge is that of the RoyalArmy Service Corps, it is however not WW,1 as it's George VI. And also not an Officer's cap badge. Chris Edited 15 June , 2019 by Dragoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1418 Posted 15 June , 2019 Share Posted 15 June , 2019 Hi its most likely to date from WW2, I’m sure someone with more knowledge will date it by the numbers. The shape of the peak is incorrect and the chin strap which is too wide are not correct for the Great War regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggers Posted 15 June , 2019 Share Posted 15 June , 2019 An officer’s cap is unlikely to have the WD stamp, as their uniforms were purchased privately, from military tailors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry B Posted 15 June , 2019 Share Posted 15 June , 2019 it is not WWI, the P over WD arrow makes it 1941, as already stated officers caps at that period and in WWI were private purchase, it also has an or's chinstrap on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
