Some of the military hat I have acquired over the past couple years, some are family, others have been given to me. There are ww1 & ww2 Army and Navy USS Kentucky stove pipe from my grandfather. Nurse & Marine Corps, Army Air Corps pilots cap and goggle, Army Dress blue hat, Navy Chief's hat my fathers, Navy White Cap, Garrison caps, etc.
I don't have a Coast Guard or Air Force hat yet.
...a-hem...don't you mean "covers" LOL
These would make a great display at your local elementary school media center on patriotic holidays. I'm just saying...
Yes Sir I mean covers, I have been out of the Army to long. There are other names for the garrison caps!!!
I have displayed the whole uniforms at our local Library and high school during the military recruiting days and patriotic holidays.
Good for you! Whole uniforms...WOW. Would love to see pics of the nurse's uniform (wife's a nurse).
I have a hat collection (12) mostly military, that I am trying to sell. Any ideas?
Try Ebay, lots of military collectors out there.
How much for the USS Kentucky?
VJnavy, The USS Kentucky had belonged to my grandfather who served on the battleship during ww1. I will keep the hat and pass it down to my daughter some day.
VillageIdiot, I would like to see that life magazine on nurses hat. My aunt was in the nurses corp during ww2.
VillageIdiot, There are a ton of Life magazines on ebay with articles about nurses. Perhaps you could look, then cut and paste it to here. Thanks
You have a lucky Daughter tomtucker!
