It is worn without cap badge under the hat outdoors and without
hat indoors. The hijab is to be worn in such a way that rank slides are visible at all times.

Racist+ un-patriotic
My hypothesis stated a niqab or burka, not a hijab, and my assumption was that it would be worn by a civilian Muslim female and not in a military context. Your reference makes no mention of Muslim headdress other than the hijab.
