Military headgear has been an essential part of a member of the armed forces’ uniform. Whether it is a hat, beret, hood or helmet it has always served as a distinguishing feature. However, a soldier’s headgear is not solely for distinction and decoration. It often also provides head protection, typically in the form of a helmet. This paper examines hats, helmets, and berets that were part of the conscription in the First Czechoslovak Republic or are directly related to it.
