This is the officer's version of the M40 tropical visor cap. It's just like the enlisted style, but is piped around the crown and the front scallop with aluminum basket weave piping. It has the correct large tropical visor, not the M43 type visor used by the other guys. As on the originals, two vent eyelets on each side of the crown and the lining is red poplin. Also, like the enlisted version, these were widely used from Southern France to Southern Russia.

A word about our fabric.
Because there was such a wide color spectrum used in the original uniforms, we make these uniforms in various shades and sometimes we vary the weight of the twill. We've gotten positive and negative feedback from different customers on the very same pieces, saying the color does or does not match with an original item they have in their collection. It's impossible for us to make and stock every known shade of Army tropical olive and we cannot guarantee shade choices.
