Product Details

Original Items: Only One Lot of 20 Available. The peaked cap, peaked hat, service cap, barracks cover or combination cap is a form of headgear worn by the armed forces of many nations, as well as many uniformed civilian organizations such as law enforcement agencies and fire departments. It derives its name from its short visor, or peak, which was historically made of polished leather but increasingly is made of a cheaper synthetic substitute.

The term forage cap is also used though that also applies to "field service cap" or the side cap.

Other principal components are the crown, band and insignia, typically a cap badge and embroidery in proportion to rank. Piping is also often found, typically in contrast to the crown color, which is usually white for navy, blue for air force and green for army. The band is typically a dark, contrasting color, often black, but may be patterned or striped.

In the British Army, each regiment and corps has a different badge. In the United States Armed Forces, the cap device is uniform throughout every service branch, though different variants are used by different rank classes.

All caps, visors and berets are in fair to excellent condition. Most of the visors have sizes, dates and personal markings such as names, units and more. The lot even includes an Australian Slouch Hat and an American Stetson!

Comes more than ready for further research and display.
