WW2 Canadian RCAF Other Ranks Wedge Cap Dated 1943 Size 7 1/8

This item is a World War II-era Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) wedge cap, issued to other ranks. The cap is dated 1943 and is manufactured in size 7 1/8. Constructed from blue wool, the wedge cap features the typical two-panel design and is fitted with blackened RCAF brass buttons on the front closure. The interior is lined with cotton and includes manufacturer and date markings, confirming its production during the war period. The wedge cap served as standard headgear for RCAF enlisted personnel throughout the conflict and was worn both in Canada and overseas. This example reflects the style and specifications mandated by the RCAF during World War II, and is representative of the equipment issued to airmen in the Commonwealth air forces. Signs of period wear may be present, consistent with original wartime use and storage. This cap provides an illustrative example of Canadian military uniforms from the mid-20th century.
