If we are an old unit, why can't we wear Tri Corner hats as part of our unit to connect with our past?

We get asked a lot of questions of RP, some are very thought provoking, and some are "troll worthy." I wanted to poke some fun at some of those "special" questions. Please feel free to respond with the most bizarre answer you can come up with.

Now you've gone and done it. Someone on the Army Uniform Board is going to read this and want to connect to the Army's "Warrior Culture."

SFC Casey O'Mally - Yeah... I get it. I've always wanted a suit of armor to wear into a bar nowhere near Halloween. When someone asks why I'm wearing armor, I'll tell them that they need to get get theirs because the Normans are off-loading at the coast.

Safety, plain and simple.
What most people don't realize is that the tri-corner actually died out due to eye injuries. Seems people kept forgetting where the front peak was in poking their battle buddies in the eye.
What is ALSO not commonly know is that the current boonie cap is actually a NOD to the tri-corner of old, but the rim is intentionally floppy to prevent previous eye injury issues.

Line the hidden part of the brim and demonstrate it's functionality as a funnel to the powers that be. Great for filling canteens or adding oil or hydraulic fluids to vehicles, aircraft and other motors. Point out the money the Army could save on funnels.
