The Monumental Significance of Christian Head Coverings
Ethiopian Orthodox Monk living in Jerusalem
If you watch the film "Hats of Jerusalem", directed by Nati Adler,
at 18:23 minutes, Abuna Salomon is interviewed about his head covering,
a purple qob (he mention it as "the crown"):
"You mean about the crown?
This crown's origin, the one who started was Jesus Christ.
During the crucifixion of Jesus Christ he had a thorn crown.
That means for us monks, we are his followers.
When we wear this crown, that means,
at the same time, we feel your pain.
We are under you.
You are our real God.
You are the son of God and we follow your rule."
Abuna Salomon, a simple monk living in Jerusalem,
explained in simple words why Christian clergy should wear a head covering!
To remember Jesus Christ's pain.
"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me."
Galatians 2:20

Biretta of Cardinal Benedict Blommaerts
In March 2011 June I published the article:
showing a picture of a Norbertine with a very tall white biretta.
Portrait of Cardinal Benedict Blommaerts (I don't think he was a cardinal?)
half-length turned to the left, facing towards the viewer; wearing a biretta, mozzetta and a rochet in his hands he holds a necklace with cross; after Jacobus van Reesbroeck; 1635-1704 (c.)
Very tall cardinal's biretta

Zucchetto and Biretta Worn by the Patriarch of the Catholic Apostolic Church of Jerusalem
© picture: Catholic Apostolic Church of Jerusalem
His Sacred Beatitude and Eminenence Emeritus Patriarch Isaac L. Kramer
Blue zucchetto with white lining
Blue biretta with white pompon
He seems to have chosen episcopal blue as his colour, rather like 18th century bishops in Europe.
Maybe the white pom is to reflect his patriarchal status?

Hat Seen During the Chartres Pilgrimage
Some kind of pilgrim's hat with a cross at the front
I could not identify to which organisation the priest belongs to?
What kind of cross it is?
The hat is called "Campaign Hat" or "Quatre Bosses" in Frensh.
It is the scouting cross of UIGSE-FSE.
Thanks very much to my esteemed readers for their very helpful answers.
Please see the comments.
