Over the last year I have worked on some caps to compliment my nylon flight jackets. I used a combination of fabric paints and colored felt. The 509th cap began as a red leather hunting cap, now painted black and white. All were done freehand. I'll make more when I can acquire photographic materials to work from. The 25th FIS cap is an 8 panel cap, the kind to use if you really want Korean War Era accuracy for some caps:
(L)A leather fantasy cap of the 509th Bomb Wing 1949-1951 era based on various photographs I could find. The rest of the caps are USAF Korean War Era combat units.(R) 13th Bomb Squadron
(L)25th Fighter Interceptor Squadron (R) 90th Bomb Squadron
