Original U.S. WWII Navy Vice Admiral’s Service Uniform Peaked Visor Cap by Art Caps of New York - Size 7⅜
-
Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of a WWII U.S. Navy Vice Admiral’s "Complete" Cap, also called the "Combination" cap. Naval officers wore a variety of different colored uniforms in service, for different locations and occasions, so a cap was designed that could utilize various removable covers to match the uniform. The standard colors were White, Khaki, Navy Blue, and Gray (not included). The U.S. Coast Guard also wore the same caps, however they used a different cap badge with a larger eagle and a single anchor instead of two.
This is a totally correct high quality genuine World War II U.S. Navy Vice Admiral’s complete visor cap. Offered in size 7⅜. It features a wonderful eagle cap badge, with the felt top visor bearing gold bullion Oak Leaf "Scrambled Egg" denoting the rank of Vice Admiral. It has the correct gold bullion chin strap, secured by the correct naval buttons.
The visor still bears a written name and manufacturers stamp on the top celluloid piece:
