  • In this video, I go over how to form your beret. This is applicable for Air, Army, and Sea Cadets. Berets should be issued by your squadron but if you would like to buy one yourself you can purchase them off Canex, Canada’s military store.

    Hello! Thank you for the video! I’m an Army Cadet and I joined a month ago, and I just got my combat and ceremonial uniforms, and I really didn’t know how to form my beret, so this really did come in handy, again, thanks for the video!

    I am saying this as an army cadet, the easiest way and quickest way to form your beret is ironing it, Iron the formed side as you would with pants or tunic, then just wait for it to dry

    • @how2cadet500
      @how2cadet500  Před 2 lety

      You do not need to shave the beret though i would recommend it. You must do it very carefully as you can shave a hole in the top. Once again, I will not take responsibility if you wreck your beret : ) . And the water temperature does not matter as much as you probably think it does.

  • @LoneBrowncoat
    @LoneBrowncoat Před rokem

    You're lucky to get berets, on parade many times in the 1970s was the problem of our Wedgies getting blown off by the wind. Plus you don't have brass hat badges to polish any more, or any brass bits to work on.

      It should be snug not tight. A common misconception of how to wear a beret is by pulling it down. The beret should be more like resting on top of your head.

      @how2cadet500  Před 2 lety +3

      You are not allowed to keep your uniform after aging out as it is the program's/DND’s property. So technically you're not allowed to keep your uniform in any element.
