While I was shooting photos of the flight jacket's yesterday, I also pulled these out and thought I should post them here.

 

First one is the Santiago blue flight / utility cap.

Next is an identified, WASP blue knit jeep cap. I have seen photos of them being worn but have not seen another one in person.

The utility cap just has the Knox manufacturing markings.

 

The jeep cap just has the WASP's clothing identification tag sewn inside.

I wonder if the jeep cap is so rare because it was probably used after the war. I have heard the WASP pants are rare because they looked like regular pants so they were worn as everyday clothing.
