Beret? Beret??
A beret is simply NOT an officer's headware. OK for French onion-johnnies and rockapes, but simply not done for aircrew....
A Captain I flew with shared this view, stole the co-pilots beret and then taped it to the inside of the bomb doors.
At a suitable time over Pakistan the Co was instructed to cycle the bomb doors, and then briefed the exact position by the Nav.
"Why do I need to know that?" he asked.
"That's the LKP for your hat mate!"
Probably even today it adorns the head of an unknown goat-herd in the FATA
