Our new D-Day caps have an extremely detailed embroidered patch with our original D-Day design that's packed with historical references. 

 Here are some of the elements that appear in the illustration:

  • A C-47, with “Invasion stripes,” along with other planes that were used to transport paratroopers and to tow gliders
  • Paratroopers
  • Barrage balloons that were set up to protect the landing area from enemy planes 
  • The beaches and nations assigned to each, listed in the order in which the men landing on the beaches saw them.
  • The flags of the major allied nations involved in the landing, including the Red Ensign for Canadian troops and the 48-star flag for US troops.
  • Troops of Company E, 16th Infantry, 1st Infantry Division (the Big Red One), wading onto the Easy Red section of Omaha Beach from the USS Samuel Chase

    Notes on the design:

    • This design brings together several different elements from D-Day; it's not meant to be a photographic representation of one specific view or scene.
    • While "D-Day" was a term used with all operations, not just the landing on Normandy Beach, I chose to use it here because it's become widely identified with this operation.
    • "Operation Overlord" was the name of the entire operation to invade Northern Europe, not just the landing. It began on June 6 and ended on August 30, 1944.

    Never the incorrect item, never the incorrect time.

    Having made several purchased from The History List, it is true.
    There is never an incorrect item in the store, and never an incorrect time for introductions. The History List celebrated America's patriots and greats. There is no gray area, their choices to honor are stellar. Their products adorn my refrigerator, my laptop, my wardrobe.
    Look forward to each new offering, and I am never disappointed.
    quality, accuracy and design are topnotch. You will enjoy these same experiences when you partake a purchase.

    Well made, handsome CAP

    I got this for my brother in the khaki/almost army green looking color.... The material has a real nice feel to it, it's well made and appointed... The overlord emblem is super nice with a lot of 'significant' points of interest.
