    Description

    VINTAGE USMC CAMOUFLAGE COAT & TROUSERS
    I have not been able to locate any information on this set.
    It may have been custom made.
    It appears to be made of a rubberized material.
    The coat is stiff but the trousers are supple.
    My husband showed this uniform to me multiple times and stated how pleased he was to have it in his collection.
    I am assuming it is WWII or KOREAN WAR era.

    This comes from my husband's collection Craig Pickrall, one of the Co-founders of the U.S. Militaria Forum who passed away Aug. 18, 2014.  He was the most awesome Militaria collector (and husband).  He loved to collect and spend hours on the Forum assisting anyone who had a question to be answered, he schooled me the best he could about his collection and all the resources and books he had so I might have a clue, he did an awesome job with who he was working with and what he had going on at the time :)
    AS STATED ABOVE, THIS WAS MY HUSBAND’S COLLECTION.  PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I WAS NOT THE COLLECTOR AND DO NOT CLAIM ANY EXPERTISE ON MILITRIA.  THE INFORMATION I POST COMES FROM REFERENCE BOOKS HE HAD AND WHAT I CAN FIND ON THE INTERNET.  I DO MY BEST TO GIVE AN ACCURATE DISCRIPTION OF THE ITEM POSTED.  I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ANSWER ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ITEM POSTED.  THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
