Custom Piece Miniature – United States Army khaki service cap from the World War II – 3D Print for LEGO minifigure

This is a custom-made headwear accessory for a toy minifigure, designed to represent a United States Army khaki service cap from the World War II era.

The accessory is a peaked cap (also known as a visor cap) in a solid khaki color. It accurately captures the shape of the service cap worn by both enlisted soldiers and officers, featuring a high front, a flat circular top, and a stiff visor.

Historical Background: This type of cap was the standard headwear for the U.S. Army’s service uniform (the Class “A” or “Pinks and Greens” uniform) during World War II. It was worn in garrisons, on leave, or in rear areas when the M1 steel helmet was not required. A famous variation was the “crusher” cap (or “50-mission crush”), which was a service cap with the stiffening wire removed from the crown. This was particularly popular with pilots and aircrews in the Army Air Forces, as it allowed them to comfortably wear communication headsets over the cap. The resulting worn-in, crushed look became a status symbol for veteran aviators. This accessory is an iconic piece of headwear synonymous with the American G.I.
