I have a Interwar tunic that is missing a button which I have. What would be the best way to re attach it while not damaging the the tunic 

I mainly own dress forms but the problem is quite a few of my uniforms are too small to fit on dress forms and mannequins or are very tight on dress forms. Does anyone have any ideas on a substitute for displaying uniforms. 

Very nice Matt! Love 41st stuff.

Hi Steve,   Here's more information about the Muskogee Army Air Field, it's exact location and some history. https://www.okhistory.org/publications/enc/entry?entry=DA016

Further research revealed the 13th Infantry Division's engineer regiment was the 213th Engineer Regiment. Could this shoulder patch been adopted and unofficially worn by the 213th Engineer Regiment? Could they have abbreviated their numerical designation to that of "13" to coincide with the numerical title of their parent organization - the 13th Engineer Regiment? and designed a shoulder patch that copied certain design elements found in the regimental shoulder patch, such as the circular shape - the black cat, as well as the numeral "13", while replacing the upside-down horseshoe with an engineer's castle?   Is this just a coincidence?   Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions regarding the identity of this, as yet, unidentified AEF shoulder patch?   I'll close with the portrait of the above Doughboy in civilian clothing.    

Those are some nice photos Matt, but I don't recognize anyone of the "higher ups" in it. Where was this base located in relation to Muskogee? I've actually been to Muskogee eons ago and don't remember seeing anything there about it. Neat history on the 41st with the Balloon Co. start in 1917.  Thanks for the post.     Steve

While researching the photo and the shoulder patch, the black cat reminded me of the 13th Infantry Division's shoulder patch which also prominently featured a black cat as part of its design. Here the 13th Infantry Division's black cat patch is compared to the above 13th Engineer Regiment's black cat patch.        

it's a box that I have and not a button

Larger views of the "castle and cat" shoulder patches. Note that the numeral "13" shown in the center of the patch in the first photo has been washed out in both of the below images. I have posted the first photo again, showing the numeral "13" for comparison.
