Civilian Defense Side Caps

Many enrolled and volunteer members of the Civilian Defense Corps units acquired white, light colored or light-tan garrison-style side caps. To these caps they added either the official unit emblem for the service they were working with or the generic CD emblem.

Some side caps are piped in red or blue.
