Uniform retains both its original collar EGAs and the Sergeants stripes are neatly hand-cross stitched. No mothing, rips or tears of any kind to the Uniform Jacket, Skirt or Cap; khaki shirt is the same except for tiny upper button hole rip that is easily repairable. Shoes (6-1/2A) are amazing showing only very minimal use, are excellent+ and the rarest part of this grouping. Everything is sized small to medium. Much harder to find than Women’s Army Corps since there were far less of them. Further research on this Woman is needed.
