Pete posing in a Hardee Hat

SCAL

Pete posing in Ireland wearing an issue Hardee hat. The majority of men in the Western Armies did not loop up the brim, or wear brass Company or Regimental badges. As the hat wore in and got weathered, they would probably change the shape of the hat to suit themselves. The Hardee is the start point for many Western 'Slouch' hats.
