WWII caps & Lt. General's West Point item

I found two WWII era caps at a recent estate sale: they are an HBT
utility cap and a wool so-called "Keep cap." The HBT hat has some
snags on the top and the Jeep cap has a moth nip or two but no holes.
Asking $30 plus shipping for the pair. They are very small but should
work for an exhibit.

The West Point cadet parade coat is missing the center row of buttons
and the bottom button on each of the outer two rows. It is named. The
bathrobe is missing the buttons but the patches on it are those
placed on it when the Lt. General was a cadet in 1963 (he told me his
previous three bath robes were lost to bets with Midshipmen during
the annual Army-Navy football game. Asking $275 plus shipping for
the pair. Always open to offers.
