Original WW1 US m1918 tunic dated march 1919. The tunic is overall good shape with few moth nips, hole, etc. The collar insignia looks French made screw back 372nd company B and US. The 1st sgt stripes, 2 bullion overseas strips, and red hand patch all looks sewn tighter with the same thread. This same thread also resewn or reinforced all the buttons on the tunic. This is how I got the tunic. I added the original ww1 medals and original ww1 fourragere. All show little wear but correct date and campaign bars for the 93rd Division. No ID anywhere but tunic came with the board ticket unmarked. The patches, insignia look right and seeing all the buttons reinforced I would think no forger would bother to do but a soldier would but there is always a first for anything.. The march 1919 date was about the time 372nd came back as any and all used wartime uniforms were replaced due to the lice, flu pandemic worries, etc that covered them in the trenches. No real providence other than is came from a longtime collector. Some history of the unit. The 372nd Infantry Regiment. Was an African American.
