The Australian Jungle Beret

When Australia entered the war in the Pacific, soldiers required a drastic change from their heavy wool uniforms and steel helmets.
Uniforms in heavy-duty, but light weight cotton were introduced, including the Jungle Beret.
Originals now fetch high prices at collectors sites.
