Marty_Doyle 10 Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 There is at least 12 up for auction on Ebay right now, and it is still carried in the BSA Supply catalog - http://www.scoutstuff.org/cgi/catalog. Link to post Share on other sites
Scoutmaster Ron 12 Posted June 25, 2003 Author Share Posted June 25, 2003 I guess it's not campaign hats I'm looking for but a 'service cap" Link to post Share on other sites
Eamonn 61 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 What is a "Service Cap"? What does it look like ? Link to post Share on other sites
Overtrained 10 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Ron, If you talking about the Military style service cap (you could hang over your belt), then no they are not a supply item anymore. Bob H Link to post Share on other sites
dancinfox 10 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Ron, If your talking about the old 50's and 60's service cap, I have one you can have. If this is what you want, email me your email address and I will send it to you, free of charge. In the Scouting Spirit Dancin Link to post Share on other sites
Scoutmaster Ron 12 Posted June 26, 2003 Author Share Posted June 26, 2003 Tks dancin fox I sent you my address. The service cap let's see how can I describe it, it's shaped kinda like the old McDonald's paper caps their employees used to wear. Or better yet Gomer Pyle usually wore one.

Bob White 20 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 The correct uniform term was the "overseas hat" sometimes reffered to as the "envelope hat". It was replaced by the red beret, and while no longer in production it is still an official uniform piece. Bob White Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Old Guy 11 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 I call it a garrison cap and they are available on ebaY. If you have a big head, it can take a while to find an extra large. Both the wool and cotton versions may be found. Link to post Share on other sites
