Voso commandant had M69

Hi Everyone,

I have been quiet on the hobby for a little wail, but im back on it now.

I recently bought this cap.
I have not yet received it, but will port better pictures if i do.

I always loved the idea of owning such a stunning cap, but it is kinda rare to find them.

Any thoughts on this cap from this bad pictures.

Does anyone have pictures of these caps in use, i would love to see that!

Re: Voso commandant had M69

There seems to be a curse on this kinda cap.

A year or so ago i bought one for many euro's and it was a fake by miles away.

Now the cap was lost or destroyed by the french post!
Tobad because it was a rather scares cap that i really want to have in my collection.

anyhow,

Still no photo's of this sort of cap being used?

Can't complain!

Do you happen to have any pictures of similar "in action"? I have a little persuasion towards those lines of communication.

Re: Voso commandant had M69

Cheers! I've always had an interest in all things trains and used to have a giant layout but since other things "get in the way" like Medals for example I don't have as much time for those interests as I would like. The PCLC is a great cross over and PJS has got me on a real Trans-Caucasus Railway kick. If you have to blame someone you might as well blame the best!

It shows just how durable the Soviet uniforms were if they were giving them to firemen on the locomotives. No doubt if you find one of those it would be black with black piping and black insignia as would anything that came into contact with it.
