Vietnam era style "boonie' bucket hats

[Forty Rod SASS 3935]

Does anyone make these in plain  green like the ones we were issued and in men's sizes (7  7/8 or  8)?

 

From a search on the web the sellers seem to think everyone has a size 7  1/2 or smaller.

 

My original hat  finally  fell apart after 60  years.  No one  makes anything  that lasts anymore.  (Sarcastic imogi needed here.)  I have guns well over twice that old that look and work almost  like new.

This place shows a size 8.

How did you  find this place?  I never came across them before.

 

Thanks, Sarge.  I  owe you  one.

You know that you can always count on your Sergeants. When I was in, ('77 thru '90), we called them jungle hats, so I just searched "jungle hat size 8", and that's one that came up.

When I wore that hat I was an Army Ordnance Corps Captain.

 

A few years later I was a Marine Staff Sergeant and a small time later a Gunnery Sergeant.

 

I  pretty well have figured out who I can  trust, but thanks again  for the upbeat message.
