OVERVIEW
In the USSR, the garrison cap was known as pilotka. It was the most common type of cap used by the Red Army during WWII and after. The pilotka was worn during the summer season instead of the winter ushankas. It continues to be worn in modern Russia, although more in the Air Force and the Navy, especially among submarine personnel, where its compactness is inherently practical. In the Ground Forces the pilotka has been more or less displaced by the patrol cap and the beret as an undress headgear, although it remains in the regulations. Navy tropical uniform also features the peculiar vizored pilotka, to protect its wearers from the sun. The garrison cap is also the standard dress headgear for women in all of the Russian armed services.
