this is a nice M1955 visor cap for generals of medical, veterinary and justice services...but certainly not 1940 (the cap badge should be round), no embroidery on visor, thick cloth, etc.
Do you confirm me gentlemen?

Confirm

Yes, the cap is parade M1954 for generals of non-combat branches. Not WWII, but a really rare cap.
