AHOY THERE!! Who likes the vintage nautical sailing cap style?
That's a snazzy piece of headwear, Paddy! My dad used to wear something similar and I have fond memories of trying on his cap as a kid (way too big for me then of course.). I wish I knew what happened to that one after he passed away. He never had anything bigger then a rowboat to "sail", but... -
"When baby moves in... dog moves OUT"

Mystery Uniform Pants
The label inside those pants don't look like any label I've seen here in Sweden... The pants does look a bit a like the m/39-m/58 type pant but there should be leather straps on the ankles. Also, Swedish army clothes are almost always marked with a triple-crown somewhere. [huh] Flieger -

A link to my past - Photos of dad in his hat
Thanks AlanC! I hope you find some photos of your own "hat history" at your parents place and I hope you feel like sharing them with us. In the meantime, here's another one I found of my dad in a hat - It's a bit more posed then the two I posted before. I guess it was taken a couple of years... -
WWII Army Officers Dress Shoes
Thanks Doug C. I would be worried that the boot got damaged by this treatment. But after thinking about it further I realise that it would be ok as long as one doesn't try and dry them out to fast and to hot. [huh] Got to try this sometime. :) Cheers /F -

Felt Strips....?
I found a similar cork strip under the sweatband of a Borsalino I bought here in Sweden. That's where I got the idea. If 1/8 is too thick for you, it's easy to sand it down. /F -

DUXFORD 'FLYING LEGENDS' AIRSHOW 2007
Thanks for sharing your photos, silhouette53! :eusa_clap Why is it that Flying Legends always come when I have no money and the tickets to England are expensive? :( One day I'll be there... one day. Btw: Did the Fw 190 fly or was it just static? Flieger -

I Lost My Feather!!!
Sorry to hear that. But, David Morgan offers extra hat feathers: http://www.davidmorgan.com/product_info.php?products_id=70 If that doesn't work for you, try the fishing tackle shops. The people that bind their own fly's often has a selection of bright feathers at hand. Just a thought...
