This is an original WW2 US Navy sailor’s white Dixie cup hat, a quintessential piece of US Navy uniform history. Constructed from durable white cotton twill, this hat bears the stenciled name “Sutherland, T. G.,” adding a personal and historical touch to its authenticity.

The exterior of the hat features additional markings, including the number “388 16 12,” which may denote service or inventory details. The interior displays the classic stitching pattern for added structural integrity and a lightweight, breathable design.

The hat has seen service, evidenced by light wear and minor aging that give it character without compromising its overall condition. This is a remarkable piece for collectors of WW2 naval memorabilia or those seeking to preserve the legacy of US Navy sailors.
