As Mr. Newsome pointed out, there are several bonnets called "Kilmarnock." The one I refer to, and if I'm not mistake, MacMillan was enquiring about is the very stiff cap worn by the Royal Company of Archers. Picture: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:R...of_Archers.jpg
What Mr. Newsome offers, I know as a hummel bonnet. I have also heard the Gurkha bonnet called "Kilmarnock."
I believe there was an infantry regiment that wore the Archers' style board Kilmarnock. I can't recall which, however!
