Honor guard cap ?

Hi folks,

i just got this motorized rifle service cap in.
the weird thing about it is,

1. it is exactly the same as a general cap on the inside and material use
2. it has no embroidering what so ever
3. it has normal officer cockade and army buttons (dated 89)

my fist thoth was a miss matched 70's general cap.
or a privet purchase, or a honor guard cap?

how about your thoughts ?

Perhaps it is an honour guards cap?
Or maybe a special make?

Re: Honor guard cap ?

Hello:

To be used and not the emblem of the Honor Guard or signs of having had, it is very unlikely to be a cap on their guard.
I think this is a private purchase of a hat made at the factory that makes some of the hats of generals y. .. also those in the Guard of Honor.

I would say it's general's cap from 70's with just the buttons and badge replaced.
