Liner is missing as well, but the good news is even a regular Iraqi army liner of the removable type will fit though incorrect, its better than none. There was someone several years back making the rubber badges for these, not sure if they are still available or not.    Scott

The RAD postcard has been sold separately. I am now offering the RAD cap badge free-of-charge to whoever buys the magazine (Die Woche) for $35 - domestic postage included!   

It is a Waffen SS one, as seen here on a 6th SS Mountain Division Sergeant in Finland. Patch seems alright, let others look in.

Thought you may be interested in my finished RAF shadowbox now I've had some time to collect a few bits!

Long shot, but Group Captain Mike Trace served in the RAF from 1969 to 2001. I think this hat predates his promotion to Group Captain in the 90s though.  

The show is this weekend  

So I have a couple of more clues. The side buttons are black plastic, and there seems to be a name written on the sweat band that is very faint. “Trace” I think it says, and there is a hand written label under the sweatband with “X100 7 1/4 AW”. Obviously the size, not sure about the X100 or AW.  Here it is with another RAF cap. It has a Queen’s crown, leather strap, fabric covered buttons, and was made by R.E. City Ltd. of London. I always thought this one was 1950-60s. 

That is great information! I am much more familiar with American military hats, and the further away you get from WW2, the more plastic, vinyl, and polyester you see used in caps. It makes sense the British are the same. I will inspect it closer when I get home and photograph it with another vintage RAF cap I have. Thanks! 

Doubtful. 😞

I wonder where the gun is at, is there is a magazine and holster together, the gun must be around somewhere.

That looks really great!  I’m still accessorizing my Bren myself
