I'm no expert for sure but here's a sizing chart that might help. There's tons of hats on Ebay all the time. Be patient and when you find one you like make a maximum bid you'd pay. -
Got a hat
well I found my 1st one in about 30+ years. Me and a buddy had fedoras when I was in my early 20s and it was just too odd back then. I found this one on Ebay and thought I'd give it a try before looking for something with a wider brim. It's a circa 1939-45 Dunlap Triumph beaver felt and cost... -

It has newer paint, chrome and radials but otherwise is the same as 1950 mechanically and cosmetically. I have a '65 Nova that still needs restoring/rebuilding and I have a line on a 1930...- Twitch

WWII Reading List
I would encourage everyone to scour used books stores for superb titles out of print. Some stores have huge war sections and prices are very low. Thrift stores have used books and occassionally you'll find a treasure in one. -

King Kong countdown....
I'm looking forward to this movie. Back about 1971 I was involved with a tiny vintage theater that showed all sorts of classics and am proud to say I ran the original uncut version of King Kong for Merian C. Cooper and others instrumental in the film in 1933. It was cool!- Twitch

WWII Eccentric Heroes
As a writer of combat aviation pieces I'd like to call your attention to Dominic "Don" Gentile.
