How to Put the Strap on a Campaign Hat
A campaign hat is the dark, wide-brimmed hat worn by military instructors and other personnel. It is durable and weather-resistant. Campaign hats have decorative gold cord around the base of the cap and a strap that extends from the bottom of the hat in a U-shape. The strap holds the hat in place on the wearer's head. The strap is not permanently attached, so the wearer must put it on before donning the hat.
