About This Work

US Army Medical Department Dress Cap.

U.S. Army Field Grade Officer Service Cap belonging to a member of the medical field.
The hat features distinctive elements that denote both branch affiliation and military rank:
  • Branch Affiliation (Medical Department): The decorative fabric hatband displays a central maroon band with white piping borders. Maroon and white have been the designated official colors of the Army Medical Department since October 1916. This covers branches like the Medical Corps, Dental Corps, Nurse Corps, and Medical Service Corps.
  • Rank Designation (Field Grade Officer): The visor (brim) is embellished with two bands of gold-embroidered oak leaves, commonly referred to in military slang as "scrambled eggs". This signifies that the officer holds the rank of Major (O-4), Lieutenant Colonel (O-5), or Colonel (O-6)
  • National Insignia: Centered on the front of the cap is the standard gold-colored U.S. Army Commissioned Officer cap device, featuring the Coat of Arms of the United States
