GI M1951 PILE CAP
I am pleased to have this piece of Cold War history in my collection. However, from your product description, you lead a potential buyer, to believe that the alpaca lining is, in fact true alpaca. When in fact the material is 60% wool, 40% cotton, not true alpaca. Just saying, overall, I am happy with my purchase. Being 74 years old this cap is in great condition.
