Had the opportunity to examine MG Allen's tropical tunic. The 104th ID bullion patch is amazing, the pictures don't do it justice.

I know a guy whose father served under Terrible Terry in WWII. He was so impressed with Terry Allen that the guy's father named him "Terrance Allen" for the general. To me, it has to be the greatest testiment to a leader to have a subordinate name his first born son after him.

 

Great uniform! I'd love to know where it resides.

20+ years ago I knew a guy who owned Allen's pinks & greens -- dunno what happened to them.

When I first saw this uniform I knew it had to be made at the same time as mine! I will attach a few photos for comparison. For those who are quick on your feet you will notice that the Mexican Border/Service ribbon is wrong...All the ribbon bars of General Allen that I have seen have been on a green background which means he moved them around on all his uniforms green or tan. I will attach a photo of General Allen wearing what I believe to be the exact ribbon bar that is on my tan.
