campaign hat

Drill sergeant's topper

A campaign hat is a broad-brimmed felt hat with a high crown pinched into four dents, worn by military drill instructors, park rangers, and state troopers.

The style became iconic through its association with U.S.

Marine Corps drill sergeants and Smokey Bear: The trooper adjusted his campaign hat before approaching the vehicle.
