Nice cap! I had one in my collection back in the 1990's for a Flag rank officer...really a great looking style of caps.

Re: Moreflot Officer Visor Cap?

ya i love the look of this particular one.
it has so much custom elements.

ya the soviets had way more cap's than Germain's did.
i guess Germain's would have liked to do the same but lacked the production capacity.

so Doug, what can you tell me about this cap.
i was told it is supposed to be for midrange (LT) officer because of the badge?

Re: Moreflot Officer Visor Cap?

It is mid-grade officer. So not a ship captain (those had a bit different badge and laurel leaves on visor), but also not an ordinary sailor (those had round, metal badge with an anchor and star on it).
