tarheelyankee Posted May 31, 2021 Share #1 Posted May 31, 2021 Hello all, Picked up this nice Marine tunic last week with quartermaster markings and dated 1921-1922. Missing EGA’s and appears to have had Sgt. chevrons at one time, now removed. Named to two marines in sleeve linings and was wondering if any of my fellow Forum friends may know where and on which ship these men had served. J. C. Fulton and J. Vanderhoof. Thank you all for looking and for any help that may be forthcoming. May we all have a very safe and peaceful Memorial Day today and reflect on the true meaning of this somber day. Some gave all, but all gave some. 🙏🏻🙏🏾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarheelyankee Posted June 5, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted June 5, 2021 Good Saturday morning Mark. Thank you so very much for taking your time and effort to locate this Marine. This is most probably the man as you say, all the dates line up and the initials too. I do so very much appreciate your help in putting an ID to this jacket. Now I have my summer project to try to expand on this Marine’s service record. Thanks again and have a good weekend. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
