What is the specific name for the hat that women in the Navy wear as part of their uniform?

Question

It is white with an interesting shape, somewhat similar to a pillbox hat.
I'm wondering if it has a unique name.

I'm familiar with the name "dixie cup" for the white sailor hat that the males wear.
Is there a specific name or slang term used for the hats the women in the Navy wear?

Answer 1

it's called a combination cover. or combo cover...either one works. The ***** cap they are talking about is in reference to the garrison cap. The garrison can be worn with the working blue uniform only. The combo cover is worn with the dress white/blue and working whites. Can be worn with the working blues in replacement of garrison cover.

Answer 2

It's called a garrison cap officially.
but unofficially its call a C yoU Next Tuesday cap



Not my term.
but it is what that type of cap was called (even when worn by men in other branches) when I was in the navy

The cap earned an offensive slang name **** cap by the resemblance of the crown's crease and folds to labia (See List of U.S. Army acronyms and expressions).
