Swally Posted 4 October , 2007 Share Posted 4 October , 2007 Hi Guys, My Granda was with the RHA from around 1902 - 1907 then with the RFA from 1914 - 1918. During his first spell I have a photo in which he sports a pillar box type hat, (see Avatar) what would he have worn in his second spell? He hailed from Bo'ness ...........in case that makes a difference! wishing you all the best, Swally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Tom Posted 4 October , 2007 Share Posted 4 October , 2007 Hello, The same as other soldiers, tin hat, or cap comforter, or the standard cap (with peak and chin strap) depending on the situation. I have forgotten the proper name for it, perhaps service dress cap. Old Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
