Here is a recent uniform find of mine. It is for a US civilian working with the 100th Division in Europe. Has the sewn on "US" patches and traingles, bullion overseas bars, and a bullion and felt 100th Division patch. This is a very nice piece, but unfortunately, the two rows of sewn-on ribbons had been removed at some point along the line. Can anyone speculate what those ribbons could be, or if a civilian was qualified to wear any?

 

Thanks!

Could it be he served in the military as a member of the 100ID, earning medals along the way (EAME, GCM, etc...) and then serving as a civilian right after WW2?

That could certainly be a possibility Johan. Either way, he had good tatse in his attire and insignia!
