It's Just A Crush...
Because of my long-time desire to own a Fifty-Mission Crush hat of some variety, I've been looking over sites such as Soviet Power and Soviet Military Stuff to see what's available.

Above: Drozdov White Guard.

Above: Soviet Air Force; WW2 Pattern.

Above: Red Army Military Police.
These are just a few samples. There are a bunch of different kinds available. Of course, if I got one I would replace the original hat badge with something more in character with my own personality.
But what's odd/morally perplexing is the fact that for the price on one of these plus shipping, I could just go to a local uniform supplier and get a modern policeman's cap. Is one idea more ethically right than another?
