High Ranking and Personality Headgear
There has never been anything quite so visually striking as
the German Officer’s peaked visor cap of the World War II era. It is as symbolic of a German Officer as the
look of the shiny riding boots and the sound of heels clicking together at
attention. German cap manufacturers were
an art unto themselve’s and created some of the finest military caps ever
produced. It is an art now lost to the
sands of time as the trade has faded into the past and the hands that produced
these pieces pass on.
This section will highlight some of the nicest pieces of
high ranking headgear that have survived the war, many of which are attributed
to some of the more notable personalities in the Third Reich, or are one of a
kind items. As with the other reference
sections on this site, it will be ever-evolving and regularly updated with new
additions, supporting text and period photographs where appropriate.
