Re: Jeep cap
I like the one's on ebay that are represented as Gov't Spec made of wool for $14.95. They appear to be same as the WWII one I have worn since the 50's.

Re: Jeep cap
WWII Impressions makes the most accurate reproduction.
Generally speaking, I've found that vehicle forums are not the best place to ask for advice on accurate uniforms/gear etc. Many guys pour tens of thousands of dollars into original parts and research for their vehicles, and then dress up in the elcheapo uniforms.
