Fatigue Blouse shown
with optional Cavalry
Sergeant
Chevrons.
#8425M-1884 ENLISTED
FATIGUE BLOUSE- BROWN CANVAS DUCK-The Army originally intended this fatigue clothing for
Cavalry soldiers
cleaning the stables, since the brown shade would not show stains as well
as the wool clothing. However, the cloth was found to be so
comfortable in warm weather, that it was issued to soldiers of all service
branches for
fatigue duty. This uniform was especially popular with soldiers serving
in Cuba during the Spanish American War in 1898.
A nice reproduction
using a Nutmeg colored cotton duck (canvas). Historians agree there were many shades
of brown canvas used during this time frame, as again, color variation was
experienced from dye lot to dye lot. Seams on our coat are
flat-felled (double stitched for re-enforcement).
Six
large black imitation hard rubber buttons close the front. The blouse has
two exterior patch type breast pockets and is unlined. Made
in the USA!
