A Vietnamese-made patrol cap worn by a CWO-2 as indicated by his rank insignia. There appears to have been some kind of award patch placed above the CWO patch, but it has been removed. The hat is made from USGI ripstop poplin M-1948 (green dominant) ERDL fabric and features a hot-pink silk lining and vinyl sweatband. The underside of the bill is ARVN BDQ fabric.
Circa 1960s
Size 6 7/8 (EU 55)
