Original Item. One-of-a-Kind. Women also served in the US Marine Corps during WW2, as mechanics, clerical staff, and in other capacities to free men for combat. They were universally respected by their male counterparts, and were issued winter forest green wool visor caps specifically designed to compliment a woman's coiffure.
This is a lovely green Female Marine’s hobby hat which is identified by a stitched tag on the interior to MARY J. KADANSKY. Kadansky enlisted in October 1944 and was stationed at the Headquarters at Henderson Hall, Arlington, Virginia for most of the war, attaining the rank of Sergeant! Later in life she served as President of the West Suburban Chapter, AARP.
The hat was manufactured by KNOX of New York, and is size 22 ½. The EGA to the front is in good shape with a great white rope chinstrap held in by USMC buttons.
