Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Thanks, I looked at them, they are different. I'm only missing a couple, got lost in the moves. Peacoat, not exactly, I'm going to guess between 86 and 89, since I remember I was married, my wife sewed them on for me. And I wasn't married until 86 and got out of the Navy in 92.- Wolf

Please tell me I didn't overpay
photobyalan hit the size, I think. I wear a 6 7/8 pretty good. This hat is a little too large, but I think I can live with it. Once it's cleaned and blocked, we'll see. -

Please tell me I didn't overpay
Received it today. What a beautiful hat. I love the light weight felt on it. It is a little large. But not too bad, does need reblocked and the brim shaped better. I'm thinking I might send it off to have it profesionally done. -

6 1/2 is too small for me, but if you look at the questions, several folks asked what the inner measurement was, 21.5" which should fit perfectly. We'll find out soon. -
