US born and raised for sure... The US soldiers I have encountered have always commented on the Aussie Hat. A mate sold one for $100 after he ran around the corner and folded the brim up many years ago.. The American guy asked if he knew anyone who had the folded up version... young fella said yes said a mate had one. Ran around the corner and clicked it up. Doubled the price... of course!He's wearing US tags though
Haha I remember one old black and white movie with one old battle-axe female instructor shouting out a war ministry man ' don't you mess with my Fanys ( first aid nursing yeomanry) for those who don't know in British humour we always found it funny, fanny being a lady's downstairs parlourThat's a bit harsh!
