1839/52 USM FATIGUE JACKET

The Marines adopted this fatigue uniform prior to the Mexican War, because of its simplicity and comfort. This jacket was worn by the Marines at Harpers Ferry. The enlisted waist jacket is a plan sky blue wool, unlined with narrow cut sleeves, closed with correct nine small Waterbury Marine buttons down the front. The jacket is almost identical to the Army fatigue jacket but without any trim. The jacket includes shoulder epaulets with small Waterbury buttons, stand up collar, two exterior pockets and functional cuffs with two small Waterbury cuff buttons, one per sleeve.

This item is individually made per order. Please disregard the "unit in stock" box.

NOTE; My estimate time to complete and ship new orders is upwards of ABOUT 20 weeks, which I'm slowly chipping away at. I appreciate your business and thank you all for your patience. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.
