RANGER'S FAVORITE CCKW CAP

Post by RANGER »

The WWII Issue A-3 Mechanics Cap with the long "flip up" visor that was issued to AAF Mechanics. The cap brings back vivid memories of the B-17s warming up at DOW FIELD in my hometown. I think it's cool and keep a NOS A-3 and Daisy Mae in Zip Locks" in my SWB glovebox.
For parades, my AM Legion or DAV cap is a must.

What's your favorite CCKW chapeau?-Don't be camera shy send in your headshot. :wink:

Don't be bashful, it would be nice to see mugshots of fellow CCKW owners we share information with. I have a photo too.

You first!

My favorite cap is what ever keeps my head out of the grease from under the ol girl... that is after I have to chase TJ the Motor Sargent and take it from his drooling mouth.

Although I do have a few of my dads OD and BDU caps from when he was in the Army.
