Something about flying saucer hats in the communist world. The more rank, the bigger & wider the crown. You can spot a general or marshal from a distance by the size of the crown. Some look like they would take wing in a stiff breeze.
The Cuban strongman Fulgencio Batista had a generalissimo’s hat, the crown must have been a yard wide.
I would beware of a new puppy.
