Original German WWII Army Heer Infantry Officers Schirmmütze Visor Crush Cap by Top Maker Wilhelm Welhausen ERA The Sword and plough atOriginal Item: Only One Available. This cap is a wonderful service used example of a German WWII Wehrmacht Heer Army Infantry Officer's Schirmmtze (visor cap), made by the very desirable Wilhelm Welhausen of Hannover and Kassel. This company was a "Top Five" maker during the WWII period, up there with EREL and Pekro, and caps made by them were desirable then as they are now. This cap really looks the business, with a lovely "Crushed" or "saddle form"
