Default Royal enginers peaked cap

I know it is not a great add (not wartime or special in anyway), but I like to show you my beautiful new OR Royal engineers cap!

The service number 25169498 was issued between 2001 - 2007 when a new system of numbering was introduced.

A very nice cap! The lugged badge is typical for these. Sometimes they had blades and in more rare circumstances sliders for certain regiments. There is no rule when it comes to officer badge fixings.

Nice cap, it has the silver and gilt officers badge which is correct to be on lugs for this type of cap
