Default Odd-looking German Cap

Was fiddling with the files a bit and came across this cap for the Germans:



Could someone shed some more light on this cap and its design?

It looks like the Ubisoft attempt at the Feldmutzen M/43.

I think it's supposed to be an NCO in regulation tropical dress, according to my book, since it is in the pacific I would say it is correct, the cap is supposed to be canvas. Can post a picture if you want.

Your right Reece, you can see the small holes along the seam
at the top that were for cooling.

Oh, OK. I have that same book. Didn't realize it was a Feldmutze.
