    Description

    THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING ORIGINAL ARMY NURSE CORPS OVERCOAT. RARE TO FIND AS MOST OF THE NURSES USED THE COATS FOR EVERYDAY WEAR ONCE THEY RETURNED TO THE US.  THIS NURSE WAS STATIONED IN FRANCE AND THE UNIFORM HAS THE 3RD ARMY PATCH ON THE LEFT SLEEVE AS WELL AS AN OVERSEAS STRIPE.  THE COAT CAN BE WORN WITH THE LAPELS OPEN OR BUTTONED CLOSED. THE BACK OF THE COAT HAS AN OPEN KICK PLEAT THAT CAN ALSO BE BUTTONED CLOSED. THE COAT IS IN GREAT CONDITION. I COULD FIND ONLY 1 AREA ABOUT 1"LONG AND 1/4" WIDE THAT APPEARS TO BE MAKE UP AND SHOULD COME OUT EASILY. I TOOK A PHOTO OF THE ITEMS FOUND IN THE COAT POCKET.  A RELIGIOUS CARD, SUGAR COUPONS, PERMISSION SLIP TO LEAVE AND RETURN TO HER BILLET AND A 50 CENTIME COIN. THEY WILL REMAIN WITH THE OVERCOAT.
