Hello Everybody, 

I just got this from a good friend of mine and thought I’d share it. I believe it’s an early NVA cap with neck flaps. It’s even named to its original owner. I hope everyone enjoys the photos.

thanks

Vic

    Very nice! That's a Văn Tiến Dũng cap, named after the general responsible for its creation. They began to be issued around 1966-1967 but from what I've seen they weren't very common until a few years later. In the early 70s they deleted the flaps.

    Great hat. Shame about the air vents.  Wish mine was named.   Rich A. in Pa.
