TIGER BOONIE HAT / TADPOLE Colour:160 GREEN derived from the Tagalog wordThe TIGER BOONIE HAT ADVISOR is a variation of the HAT, JUNGLE that was issued to the U. S. soldiers during the Vietnam conflict. The origin of the boonie hat can be traced back to fisherman's "bucket hats," constructed of wool or tweed. By the late 1930s, the U. S. military had adopted a wide brimmed design, inspired by bucket hats in the form of the Denim Army Hat, better known as the Daisy Mae and later in Olive Drab HBT as part of the P41 Uniform.
