A cap is a tall, cylindrical military cap, usually with a peak (British English) or visor (American English), sometimes tapered at the top. It is usually adorned with some plaque ornament or badge on the front, metallic or otherwise, and often has a feather, plume, or pompon (also called sultan) [citation needed], attached at the top. The cap of the word originated from the Hungarian name ( "cap"), as part of the uniform of the Hungarian hussar of the 18th century. There include Chako, Czako, SCHAKO and tschak.

During this final period of elaborate and colorful traditional uniforms, cap varies widely from army to army in height, color, ornamentation, and profile. Among the most distinctive were the high Napoleonic hat (kiver) used by the Russian Imperial Guard and the simplified model of low (ROS) of the Spanish Army. The Swiss version had black leather peak front and rear – a feature that also appeared on the hit cap as worn by British postmen between 1896 and 1910 and police from New Zealand, for the same period. Most German police forces adopted a version of the cap? J ger after World War, replacing the old leather needle (Pickelhaube) that had been identified with the former imperial regime.
