13th AAC uniform

[Chuck Locke]

I'm going to show you a mint 13th AAC uniform, and then tell you how I got it. This uniform has not one moth nip, tear, nothing. The Ike is dated Dec 1944, the pants Jan 45, and it looks like after the war he came home dry cleaned them and hung them in a cedar closet. First some uniform photo's

Now the stuff found in the pockets. I would guess that the plastic are remnants of canopy.

I received this uniform from a friend who had been helping a woman and her husband clean out her grandfathers house. When she was asked where she wanted to put her grandfathers uniform se told him to throw it away.

Not being able to do this he put it in his car and gave it to me.

Hi Chuck, what a superb grouping! The uniforms alone are nice, but the personal items really make it. I am really pleased that you have saved it.

Cheers, Ade.
