In all the years posting on this blog, I have never done any sort of Veterans Day post which I think is somewhat of a shame considering my hometown Virginia Beach is mere minutes away from Naval Station Norfolk which is the world's largest naval base. Whether I was seeing the Tidewater Tides play or just out and about in town, uniforms were a regular sight growing up!
Perhaps the reason for not having done a dedicated post is that I do not own any of the "Armed Forces Day" hats so while I do not have a military uniform themed cap, what I do have is a sort of meta-uniform cap by way of Paul Lukas's Uni Watch Blog which if we are being honest is a big reason why my blog exists. Obsessing over the nuances of uniforms is a tale as old as time.

| Lukas worked with Ebbets Field Flanels to create this cap featuring the design prowess of Bryan Molloy in this now-iconic cap logo of winged stirrups. |

| Even though this week's cap is not a military-themed cap, the pride of owning something being Made in the U.S.A. is unrivaled in terms of patriotism, especially in the most troubling times. |

| The grey flannel material on the undervisor here is unlike any other cap I own and now that I have seen it here, I want it on many other caps even though I know that would be highly unlikely. |
This week's Fresh Fitted Friday selection is not going on the Trading Block however please don't hesitate to reach out if you want any other cap from that list and you are willing to part with any of the hats on my Wish List.
