Service Cap

[Abby.L]

I wear a service cap, and have since I became a Cadet Officer. It is rather annoying to carry all day, I will certainly say that. In CO, it is more functional than the flight cap (IMHO) because it has a brim and can protect you at least a little bit from the rain and snow, especially with the rain cover on . I prefer the look of it to the flight cap myself, and think that I look better in the service cap than the flight cap. Wearing it, I have a little "chart" I use to determine when I do:

Service Dress: Service Cap
SS/LS Blues w/tie: Service or Flight Cap, depending on weather and if I'm outside or inside for the duration
SS/LS Blues without tie: Flight Cap

Each to his own of course.

Er, Charles. Long Sleeve Blues Shirt without tie isn't per regs. But yes, I do like my service cap. Only worn it twice...
