Vietnam era HMM-361 ball cap

Hello,
I would like to ask a question about this HMM-361 ball cap in my collection.

Was it a combat cap worn in Vietnam, or was it simply a souvenir brought back by the pilot after serving in Vietnam?
For me personally, the dragon embroidery is so cool that I couldn't pass it up.

I appreciate the answers.

 

Thanks in advance,

Hoang.

    Those are Combat Aircrew wings on your hat, so it wasn’t a “Pilot”. These hats were technically not a uniform item but I’m sure they were popular with the squadron personnel and were worn frequently in uniform.
