WH (Heer) M43 Cap (Einheitsfeldmütze M43). The M43 field cap was introduced for wear by all ranks on 11 June 1943 as a replacement cap for all other field caps then in use. The design of the M43 field cap was based on the earlier M42 overseas cap (Feldmütze) and the Mountain Trooper’s Mountain Cap (Bergmütze) with minor variations. The standard issue M43 field caps were constructed of field-grey wool. The cap is having rayon lining material, the cap is faintly marked. The cap is complete with an in my opinion reapplied by hand BeVo-woven M43 cap-eagle/cocarde (trapezoid). The cap is in good used condition with some normal traces of usage, see photos. Nice and nowadays hard to find original WH (Heer) M43 cap!
