Cosa possiamo dire del Garrison Cap? Fondamentalmente si tratta di un cappello che riprende il design dell' Overseas Hat portato dai Doughboys Americani della Prima Guerra Mondiale. Viene introdotto nel 1939, e veniva prodotto fondamentalmente in tre tessuti differenti:

- In lana O.D. ( Olive Drab ), versione da portare con le uniformi invernali
- In lana O.D. Chocolate elasticizzata, versione indossata principalmente dagli Ufficiali, ma anche spesso visibile tra gli NCO e la truppa.
- In cotone khaki, versione da abbinare con l' uniforme estiva.

Ad un certo punto della guerra viene eliminato il piping ( o trim ) che andava ad indicare il branch di appartenenza, in modo da rendere più agevole la fornitura e perchè non ci si trovasse con un Geniere con il piping della Military Police e via dicendo.
Inoltre, esistono due pattern, due modelli. Uno più affusolato, con una sorta di soffietto centrale ed una zona cupolare più a " dorso di mulo ", più tondeggiante ed un secondo primo di soffietto e decisamente più lineare ed alto nella zona cupolare.

Ora vi vado a presentare i pezzi che ho inserito attualmente in collezione, e verranno specificati gli esemplari che fanno parte di altre collezioni...

Mi sono già dilungato troppo, quindi via con la presentazione dei pezzi...
