WWII 1945 US Army Tunic -
The field WWII US Army trousers were manufactured from wool. This type of uniform was employed widely throughout the
entire European theatre. The construction of the trousers remained pretty much unchanged during the war. The
pants had two front and two rear pockets. It was made of
wool.
Typical of American uniforms, a
tag
containing various information was sewn to the trousers. This particular
example had the tag attached to the back of one of the rear pockets. The tag contains a wealth of
information which is very helpful to a collector. Data such as the year of manufacture, color,
contract number, manufacturer's name, etc are found there.
