UWU-0058, WWII US Army Service Coat size 42EXL with 82nd Airborne patch

This item is listed for historical interest only. It is not for sale.

This is an original huge WWII US Army Service Coat size 42EXL.  The uniform is in excellent condition with the exception of two moth nips and one hole, one to the lower front right pocket flap and the other to the upper right pocket, then the moth hole is on the lower left front/ side of the coat is 1/2" tall and 1/4" wide.  Other moth nips are a pinhead size or smaller.  The size is amazing for WWII this is an extremely rare original size and the first I have ever seen.  The uniform has original 82nd Airborne patches as well as Tech Sergeant patches.  However I feel that the 82nd Airborne patches may have been added post war.  There is also a French Croix de Guerre over the left shoulder which appears to be of the period.  Overall outstanding uniform due to its size and condition.  DO not let this one pass by if you want a big size, for WWII, in its original condition.
