WOW! Is this a WWII WAC uniform?

Found this at an estate. Lady said it belonged to her mom and it was a WWII WAC uniform... was she full of beans?

 

I looked up a couple of things on ebay. You might check them against 260238913855 and 290230872976 . I don't think the patch on the shirt is right for WWII WAC uniform. I don't know much about it though.

 

I've sold two of these shirts before, the shirt is absolutely WAC. I don't recognize the patch on the sleeve, though.

hmm, yes this is different. Cotton shirt and wool pants, but the pants are riding pants like the ones shown.. I posted on the Historical Mem Ebay board as well.

 

DAMN, woman! You look great in a uniform!

The pants - nope, not US Army . WAC pants were full length.

The shirt is if it's marked with a womens size, i.e., a 10 , 12 14 or so might be WAC. I am checking on the patch - it's not in my 1941 or 1951 Army Officers Guide.

ha ha ha watch it be a girl guides scoutmaster uniform or something crazy like that

 

I have seen that shoulder patch before, and I am pretty sure is military. I just can't find it!

The folks at that ebay board know their stuff.

I'll let you know what they say if they answer back

 

A HA! From a thread on the Fedora Lounge

I think I found your patch - 4th Service Command. Check it out here

A few minutes too late! :lol:

 

4th Service Command! That is different than 4th Corps or 4th Army, which I found. See this site:

so its a reenactment piece?

 

Oh No - it's real and WWII. That site just had info about what the 4th Service Command was.

Thank you! Now to figure out what the deal is with the pants...:damnit:

 

I agree - separate them!

Does the shirt have darts or tucks at the waist for the bust? That plus the size marking will tell you if it's mens or womens.

no size markings but definately a womans shirt, has pintucks at shoulders
