The Army Uniform Board appointed a special subcommittee on caps in 1950 to develop a cap design for the general duty uniform. The committee recommended a solid construction service cap in one shade, similar in design to the cap developed by the Quartermaster Corps for the Air Force in 1948. The Army adopted a modified version of this cap on September 9, 1954. The new cap was made of Army Green shade 44 wool serge with a black leather visor and chinstrap. It had a straight, high front and relaxed crown, and a bright brass disc with the US Coat of Arms was worn centered on the front.
