Hat Blocker

[Carroll G. Abbey]

I learned the same technique from Walt Sparks at a National School. Works very good and the hat comes out with a nice blocked crease in it. I take my new caps and
steam iron them while they are folded to set the creases.
I prefer the standard wool cap.The new style mesh caps may not work as well.
It is amazing to me that some people will take great care of the rest of their uniform and neglect washing or replacing hats. Just one of my pet peeves.
