a. Beret (para 3â2b(1)). (See figs 16â3 and 16â4.)
b. Garrison cap, Army green. (See figs 16â2 and 16â6.)
(1) Design. The cap will be made from an approved specification or pattern.
(2) Ornamental braid. Garrison cap braid refers to the piping that is secured to the tip edge of the curtain of the
garrison cap and that is used for additional identification purposes. For junior and senior ROTC cadets, the cap has a cord edge braid of the same material as the cap, in AG shade 489 or 491.
(3) Wear. The beret became the standard headgear for class A and B Army green service uniforms, and the enlisted Army green dress uniform, on 14 June 2001.
(4) Proper wear position.
(a) See para 3â5 for wear policy on the beret.
(b) The garrison cap is worn with the front vertical crease of the cap centered on the forehead, with the front lower
portion of the cap approximately 1 inch above the eyebrows (approximately the width of the first two fingers). The top of the cap is opened to cover the crown of the head. The bottom of the rear vertical crease will fit snugly to the back of the head. Hair will not be visible on the forehead below the front bottom edge of the cap.
