Early WWII Campaign Hat, 4th Cavalry Regiment

[kyhistorian01]

Here is a recent donation from a freind. She was a freind of General Tully's family and the General's daughter was a long time freind and bridesmaid in her wedding. This hat was given to her many years ago and was worn by General Tully when he was a Col in command of the 4th Cavalry regiment. The General's name is under the sweat band and I was sent a hand written letter with it outlining the details of it being given to her after the General's death. it is a Stetson hat and the 4th crest is screwback.

 

Tully went on to Command the 80th Division.
