Think this may be a BGS cap which seems to have some form of insignia missing from the front.

There are billions of fake hats out there, but very few originals. The easiest way to tell is the originals have two buttons, the "bullseye" badge (missing on yours), and soft cloth interior. Anything that looks waxy on the inside is a fake.

I'm pretty sure the roundel is the same as was on BW items that came later in the 1960s and 1970s. At the time this was made the BW had roundels with either crossed swords or crossed wings (Luftwaffe).
