Tan Diced Balmoral/Bonnet, non MOD?

[KMCMICHAEL]

Ive worn green(When SF Support also wore green) and maroon berets in Panama between 91 and 96. Sure it was not "Fun", but neither was it impossible. The fact that I could wear a beret and others could not, well it made it bearable.

I wore a green smokey hat in 125 degrees near Glamis, CA from 88 to 96 but...dem days be over. I suspect my kilt attire for the summer will be a Tilley or Panama straw. I was just hoping to find an alternative. I have friends that wore that green beret. I purchased a few Randall's from them and developed my preference for Bombay gin.
