    A U.S. Army soldier in Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP) uniform holds an inverted patrol cap by its crown, revealing the interior lining and a white care/size label. The cap appears to have handwritten markings on the interior brim, including what appears to read 'DO NOT IRON' or similar text. The background shows blurred green foliage, suggesting an outdoor setting.

    Pvt. Matthew Scaccia, an infantryman with Charlie Company, 3rd Battalion, 172nd Infantry Regiment (Mountain), New Hampshire Army National Guard, holds up his patrol cap that reads “BE NOT AFRAID” and was marked with a tally for every day completed Ranger School, Sept. 1, 2026, at the State Military Reservation in Concord, N.H. The 62 tally marks represented each day that Scaccia completed during the demanding Ranger School, where Soldiers were tested on their physical fitness, mental endurance and leadership abilities on their way to earning a ranger tab.
