Honestly not meaning to sound uppity, but an officer's cap would be worn by Leutnant and above.

There was a different (slightly) version for enlisted wear.

What I should have said was 'Visor Cap', so there was a slightly different version for what ranks, and how was it different?

Visor caps were worn by all ranks. Look at wwiidayabyday.com in the uniform section for examples.

Thanks to you all!
