Morning All,

Came across this Navy coat, it looks similar to the Army's M1902. The tag in the pocket is named to "D. B. A.d.a.m.s." and is dated January 30, 1919. The two ribbons are the WW1 Victory Medal w/star and what looks like the Life Saving Medal. Has some nice bullion on the coat as well.

The circle around the star indicated naval militia, so you'd have to get state records (Washington, presumably) to research the name. There is no D. B. Adams in the USN/USNR registers for 1918, 1919 or 1920. It's interesting, though; original NM insignia is somewhat rare in my experience.
