Ships' Ball Caps
Ball caps bearing the names of ships are not items of official Navy
issue, and are not centrally manufactured or stocked by the Navy. Ball caps
can be procured from commercial manufacturers by the ships themselves, and
sold to crew members through the ships' stores. Most, if not all, manufacturers
will make up caps to order for any present or former ship. When inquiring
about caps, specify the full name and hull number of the ship desired.
We have identified the following commercial sources of ball caps. This
list is provided for informational use only, and does not imply an official
