This is the Banana War era summer service khaki United States Marine Corps. Worn by Private Burleigh M. Odum formerly named John M. King who served with the Marine Corps from 27 June 1927 up until his honorable discharge on 6 September 1933. When the USMC muster roles became available, I was pleased to find his history well documented. I have the greatest amount of respect for these men- hence why I collect items that keep their names and their heroics alive. My items were obtained from the family directly or from a collector who obtained it directly from reputable sources. Therefore, other than stating the item is displayed on a size 38 mannequin, I will not give out specific sizes. I do not feel these to be reenactor pieces, nor Halloween costumes. If you are a collector with a mannequin display, I restate that this is displayed on a 38 mannequin- the typical larger size for the Banana War era Marine. The following records are available online via Ancestry. Com’s USMC Muster Rolls. Before purchasing, please feel free to check the records yourself. To expedite the service history, I will touch upon the highlights of his career. A brief service summary is included with this piece. 27 June 1927: D Company, Recruit Depot, Parris Island, SC. 29 September 1927: Sea School, Norfolk, VA. 12 November 1927: Marine Detachment, USS Lexington CV-2, MEMBER OF FIRST CREW ON LADY LEX! 7 September 1928: Did not rifle qualify on Lexington. November 1928: HQ Company, San Diego. November 1929: Overseas detachment, Shanghai, China. 10 December 1929: USS Helena PG-9 (GUNBOAT) Canton & Castle Peak Bay, China. May 1931: Company M (24th), 3/4 Marines, MCEF, Shanghai, China. November 1931: En route to Naval Hospital, PI via USS Houston. March 1932: Rejoins 4th Marines in Shanghai. September 1932: Mare Island, California (Sick). February 1933: Casual Detail, USS Chaumont AP-5. June 1933: Marine Barracks, Washington DC. 6 September 1936: discharged and awarded good conduct medal – not included. This rare style pattern 1929 summer service blouse and is name stamped to Mr. Odum (BM Odum- name stamped in shoulder of blouse) and displays nicely. It has been stored in a humidity controlled collection for ten years now. The blouse has no odors and is as right as rain. It does show slight toning due to age and has a toning area that goes down the back of one sleeve. The service EGAs on the lapels are matching Pattern 1920 pieces with round roller nuts (one seems to be a replacement roller). This blouse is a scarce piece in its own right as it is a rare Pattern 1929 with its original p1920 EGAs. Given this was a Sea Detachment Marine on board the Lady Lex’s first crew and a Gunboat in China makes it that much more special. If you have any further questions about this item, please let me know. It comes from a smoke free home and was properly stored in a humidity and temperature controlled collection.
