I believe this is the one Rangers will wear???

The 1880's saw the transition begin from the blue to the tan Army. By 1905 the Army was in Khaki with bolt action smokeless powder rifles.

The Regular Army went into the SpanAm war in Blue shirts and trapdoor Springfields.

The "Campaign Hat" has long been preferred over the "Kepi/patrol hat" by field troops for over 160 years.
