robinb Posted July 16, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 16, 2021 I've had this jacket for decades but never realized until tonight that the label is for one Lt E.P. Washburn N 783596, apparently an Army nurse. There is nothing else on the jacket to give any clues to her service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Hate Moths Posted July 17, 2021 Share #3 Posted July 17, 2021 I guess it was common for women to have these jackets. Here is a link to the one that i have. https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/347235-mans-m41-field-jacket-named-to-a-woman/&tab=comments#comment-2779502 I hope you are able to find some info on Lt. Washburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
