I am sure we have discussed this before, but why was it called a forage cap? I was wondering if any new forum members might have some information.
I believe it is a myth that the forage cap was so named because soldiers use it to carry forage in. I do understand that this is a common belief, but is there any information confirming this? I know that some supposed "expert" wrote an good article about this being a myth, but I am having problems finding the article.
