Four authentic WWII overseas caps:

1. EM/NCO wool with Armored braid / piping.  Quartermaster tag intact, but no longer legible.  Approximate size 6 3/8.  No mothing or notable condition issues other than some wear to the sweatband from being worn.
2. EM/MCO khaki cotton with Engineer braid / piping.  Quartermaster tag intact, but no longer legible.  Stamped size “7 1/4″.  Clean condition with no issues.
3. Officer Quality elastic wool with Engineer braid / piping.  Unusual color material.  It looks soiled in the pics, but it’s actually a rusty brown color.  Size 7 1/2.  Silk lining with intact leather sweatband.
4. EM/NCO wool with Engineer braid / piping.  Size “7″.  In used condition with no mothing or stains.  The soldier penned “W4461″ and “PVT Woods, Co. B 31 ENG, 374″ inside the sweatband.  I was able to find this veteran in the National Archives.
