Description: History: This distinctive cap was worn by members of the French Navy's submarine force (Sous-Marins), which played a vital role during both World War I and World War II. The French submarine fleet, known for its daring operations and significant contributions to naval warfare, was an integral part of France's defense strategy. The cap's design, with its traditional red pompom and "Sous-Marins" inscription, reflects the pride and heritage of the French submariners who served with distinction during these tumultuous periods.
