old ww1 campaign cover/smokey bear?
« on: December 14, 2011, 06:21:00 AM »
Hi all, I hope not the only one.  I have been looking for one of the old campaign covers for a hunting hat, like the doughboys wore.  I have looked at the drill instructor cover and find the brims to stiff, just curious if anyone seen or know another place to look, or if anyone uses one of the smokey bears.
