Borrowed straight off a parade ground and made for civilian mischief, worn open over a slip or buttoned up with nothing underneath.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a US Army Green Service Uniform coat, the classic \"Class A\" dress green jacket in the \"Army Green shade 44\" (AG‑44) wool serge. Tagged 1960s by the famous vintage collector extraordinaire, Jill Wax of La France Ybor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Army green uniform was introduced in 1954 and became the standard service dress by the late 1950s, staying in use for decades. This one has the hallmarks of the 1950s–60s cut: single‑breasted, four gold Great Seal (eagle) buttons, notched lapels, and four flap pockets. \"Coronet\" is the maker\/contractor label (a common mid‑century uniform manufacturer).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sleeve stripes. The stacked gold diagonal bars near the left cuff are overseas service bars (each one represents six months of overseas service). That's an authentic detail, not decoration, which adds a little collector interest. It reads as genuine military issue (wool serge, proper buttons, quilted-ish lined interior). Worn open and belted, it works great as an oversized vintage blazer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterials: wool blend military cloth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize \u0026amp; fit: structured jacket; see measurements (military sizing runs particular).\u003cbr\u003eLength: 29\", Chest: 19.5\", Waist: 18\", Hips: 22\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePatina note: One of one.
