Description: This original World War I U.S. Army Infantry Garrison Cap was a staple of the American soldier's uniform during the Great War, especially in overseas deployments. Garrison caps were worn as part of the standard issue for enlisted men and were often adorned with various insignia representing the soldier's unit and achievements. This particular cap is accompanied by several historically significant pins: a WWI Victory Pin, a Staff Sergeant pin, a WWI Overseas Enlisted Pin, and an "H" Pin that may reference Company H of the 104th Infantry Regiment, part of the famed 26th Infantry Division, also known as the Yankee Division. Condition: The cap shows its age with discolorations throughout, a shredded lining, and a dry leather sweatband that shows signs of loss. Loose stitching is present across the cap, and the outer shell is missing some stitching as well. The accompanying pins exhibit tarnishing and various degrees of discoloration, consistent with their age and history. Please see photos for a detailed view of the condition.
