Did Heer snipers wear any specific cap insignias? If so please tell me where I can find reference pics. I've searched everywhere and I can't seem to find pictures of sniper caps. I'm looking for caps like the ones in the default ones. Any help would be appreciated :)

it would be cool to put this on an Axis sniper model. Its worn on the lower right sleeve of the tunic above the cuffs.

I don't think snipers had any official pins ar badges other than the one's posted here, seems that something like that on their hats would make them a target for other snipers to me. However, the sniper badge in was most likely never even awarded let alone worn in the field, due to it's late introduction.

I'm not really interested in putting it in the uniforms since there is only one uniform for all classes so if I put those in the sniper uniform all the classes that wear the feldgrau will wear it too. I'm only interested in a specific sniper cap or something but Trigger might be right there might not be a specific sniper cap, BTW thanks for the site I found some things in the Heer caps that the default ones don't have.:)
