This is a 1920's US Army uniform. Of gabardine construction. Four pocket design. Metal gold-colored buttons bearing the design of the American Army eagle. Four pockets with flaps that used buttons to secure them shut. once closed, the buttons were exposed.

The design set the standard for the uniforms employed during WWII. The same type of design remains in use today.






Officers had the prerogative to have their uniforms tailor made. The example shown here is one of those cases. The black tag with gold letters is the trademark of the maker.





The arm has two patches. The construction is of heavy wool. Identical to the ones employed during WWI. the upper patch indicates the unit. The lower, red patch is the length of overseas service.



The rank of the soldier is shown here. The construction of the patch was of heavy wool. The construction differs from that of the WWII patches because the material in the latter years was lighter.
