21-style large-brimmed hat].

Starting from the winter of 21, with the approval of the ** Military Commission, the whole army has successively changed to 21-style training uniforms and work uniforms.

With the 21-type series of work clothes equipped with troops, in order to better match with it, a special 21-type large-brimmed hat was also designed for it.

The Type 21 is no different from the previous Type 07, which is essentially a facelift of the Type 07 large-brimmed hat, and the shape and decoration are basically unchanged, such as the hook line of the hat wall, decoration and contour. However, the angle of the crown of the Type 21 has been adjusted so that it is lowered overall, and the surrounding contour is widened. In addition, the materials and workmanship of Type 21 should also be better.

The emergence of the Chinese large-brimmed hat].

Counting up, the big-brimmed hat has been equipped in our army for decades, and many people are familiar with it, but do you know when the big-brimmed hat first appeared in China?

The large-brimmed hat as a military hat originated in the early 19th century in the armies of Western powers. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Beiyang New Army reformed its military system, and its military uniforms were borrowed from the Eastern and Western powers, among which it was more influenced by its eastern neighbor Japan.

In March 1911, on the eve of the Xinhai Revolution, the military uniforms of the new army were adjusted again, and the uniforms (regular uniforms) of officers and soldiers were changed to large-brimmed hats, which were similar in style to Japan's "38-style" military hats, and also laid the basic style of large-brimmed hats of the squadron after that. During the Wuchang Uprising, the revolutionary army wore this kind of large-brimmed hat.

In the early days of the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the officers and soldiers of the National Revolution who participated in armed uprisings such as the Nanchang Uprising and the Autumn Harvest Uprising all wore large-brimmed hats, but they all took off their blue sky and white sun cockades. During the revolutionary war, the standard military hats of our army successively included the Red Army cap, the Eighth Route Army (New Fourth Army) cap, and the liberation cap.

50-55 style large-brimmed hat].

Soon after the founding of the People's Republic of China, our army was uniformly equipped with 50-style military uniforms in 1950, and all cadres and soldiers of the army and the army and air force wore large-brimmed hats in summer, regardless of gender. This is the first large-brimmed hat officially equipped by our army.

The style of the 50-style large-brimmed hat is imitation of the Soviet style, made of cotton plain cloth (cadres above the regiment and the sea ** boat unit are made of woolen material), the army and air force are grass green, the navy is navy blue, and the summer is covered with a white hat cover, all of which are black brims and hat belts.

Not long after the 50-type large-brimmed hat equipment was equipped, the troops generally reported that it was very inconvenient to wear a raincoat and cloak during the march and battle, and the cost was also high, so the large-brimmed hats of army cadres and soldiers were successively changed to liberation hats, and female soldiers changed to beanie soft hats.

In 1955, our army implemented the rank system, and at the same time was equipped with 55-style military rank clothing, and the male officers of the three armies wore large-brimmed hats. The 55-style large-brimmed hat is the heyday of the large-brimmed hat of our army, with many varieties and high quality. According to the rank, it is divided into marshals, generals, colonels and lieutenants, according to the branches of the army, navy and air force, and according to the clothing series, it is divided into top hats and regular hats (summer hats).

The 55-style large-brimmed cockade is round, and the main body of the army is a red five-star with a golden yellow edge, with a golden eighty-one in the middle, and a golden yellow gear wheat ear on the peripheryThe navy pressurized the golden iron anchor pattern behind the eighty-one five star;The Air Force pressurized the golden eagle wings behind the 815 star.

Soon after the Type 55 military uniform was equipped, some adjustments were planned. In July 1958, the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission made the "Resolution on Revising the Clothing System", changing the boat-shaped caps of army and air force soldiers to liberation caps, and the large-brimmed hats of officers were worn as epaulettes on festivals, diplomatic and other occasions, and were also changed to liberation caps in peacetime. The size of the cockade has also been changed accordingly.

65-85 style large-brimmed hat].

In 1965, our army abolished the military rank system, and at the same time abolished the large-brimmed hat, and the cadres and soldiers of the whole army wore liberation hats. However, after several years of practice, the Type 65 has exposed some problems, especially the large opinions on naval clothing inside and outside the military. It is generally believed that the navy uniform is too monotonous, and the color and style are far from the internationally used naval clothing, and do not adapt to the characteristics of the ship force.

On March 18, 1972, the Party Committee of the Navy requested permission from the Military Commission to approve the Navy's change of clothing. On May 1, 1974, the Navy carried out a clothing reform: the large-brimmed hat and sailor uniform were restored. At the same time, the female soldiers of the whole army changed their skirts and beans. The partially modified uniform is called the "Type 74 uniform".
