Description

Luftwaffe visor cap for EM and NCOs. Unlike an officer's cap which was always worn with a silver bullion piping, EM and NCOs had a colored piping that indicated the branch they were serving for. 

Branch: Anti-aircraft. Red piping.
Insignia: A alumimum cap eagle and wreath badge. All prongs in place.
Chin strap: textbook black strap for EM and NCOs. Correct buttons period time attached. The buckles a bit rusty and lack of color. 

Lining: Yellow color silk.
Celluloid diamond: Completely intact with manufacturer marking "Tiller Wien 7./62 Mariahilferstr. 22"

No size marking. 

Sweatband: light brown sweatband with minor signs of wear. The seam to the left is a bit open, but the visor and the sweatband are still firmly in position. 

Several moth bites to the piping and the cap lid.
