The fate of the "crusher" cap
I've been doing a lot of research into the history of the Air Force lately, and I noticed that the early 50's was really the last time you saw the famous "crusher" cap in use (I absolutely love the blue crusher cap in addition to the OD ones of WWII). So my question is (and I haven't seen any inf...

I think I found a real WWII Crusher Cap
I view your cap as a WW2 crusher because it "crushes" due to the thin visor. It's not just some standard officer's that someone took the wire band out of. Also, it's of dark gabardine wool, which is typical of a legit crusher - not the lighter fur felt found on non-crushers. I don't think a cap must have a backstrap to be a "crusher."

I think I found a 'real' WW2 AAF CRUSHER! Am I right?
I doubt that in WW2 any pilot ever told any other pilot his cap wasn't a crusher because it wasn't a Bancroft Flighter like his. To modern day collectors, a service cap without the inner stiffening, upper crown ring, and a single-ply thin visor is a 'true crusher' and was manufactured as such while others are merely 'crushed caps'.
