1st New Jersey Volunteers Trucker Hat
In the early part of the war, The Board of Associated Loyalists was formed in New York and chaired by William Franklin. The King authorised this group to conduct raids in order to acquire continental supplies, and to show his gratitude, allowed them to divide captured goods among themselves. 200 acres of land were promised to all of those who stayed the course for the duration of the war. Although the raids were to be strictly against military targets, many loyalists were very angry over loosing their homes, land, jobs, and friends, and found it quite difficult to limit their aggression to military targets. Being in disagreement with British military tactics, and knowing that Britain had failed to put down the initial uprisings in the colonies, The Board of Associated Loyalists felt that it would take a more unorthodox approach to warfare in order to shift the war back into England's favour. In 1776 the New Jersey Volunteers were formed and based in New York which was occupied by the Britsh. To have a such a large loyal group of New Jerseyeans working with them was most beneficial to British military efforts, for with free reign of New Jersey, the British army could attack the continentals in Pennsylvania while easily protecting their supply line in New York. The King's authority to conduct raids, the anger of loosing their lives as they were, the promise of booty and land, and the largest loyalist population percentage of all the colonies would soon prove to be the recipe for the largest and most feared loyalist regiment serving the British army, and this regiment would embark upon a cruel, fear-based campaign that New Jersey residents at the time would much rather forget than remember

My dad and I love the show Squidbillies, but now that I've moved out, we don't get to watch it together anymore. I figured this was the perfect gift for him on Christmas because we both think this is one of Early's funniest hats, and it has some sentimental value. Atleast, as much sentimental value as you can get with a hat that says "Booty Hunter" on it lol.
It's big enough so that it will fit my dad's big ol' head, but its nice that it also has straps in the back, so he could adjust it if needed. I haven't tried to wash it yet, but I'm hoping the print lasts. Overall, I know my dad is going to love it and I can't wait to give it to him for Christmas. The quality of the image is excellent. The colors are bright and pop out, and the words are legible.
