Strange there is no label with the maker's identification, NATO codes, washing instructions etc... :?

And otherwise i got non original caps with labels ;)

Hi Rudi,

the "patrol caps" from the new ACU (Army Combat Uniform) are equipped with the same inner pocket. I think ist is used to carry papers or other flat things that doesn´t bother by wearing. But I haven´t seen a cap in woodland pattern with that pocket! It looks original (rank insignia SSG) but the dating without identification label (DLA-, SPO- or SPM-number) is not possible!

Til Saturday (Olli, thanks for the rations!)!

So long mreheater72
