Made of classic HBT material, the P44 fatigue set was developed and introduced toward the tail end of the war as a result of the experience gained during the Marines' hard slog across the pacific. As they were Introduced so late, research seems to suggest they saw limited use in 1945 in Okinawa, but would be used extensively in Korea and by the French in Indochina.
Condition
This is absolutely perfect. Strong stamp in the collar, made by S Rosenbloom, and dated to 22nd January 1945. Has some pretty wild colour variation in the HBT!
