Hello,
You have a very nice uniform + the coat (the purse looks like with the [original to the] uniform too?)
I’m wondering what Corps it belongs? Can you tell me what is the color of the epaulets? Or what the patch says?
I collect ARC uniforms, i have 12 of them, 7 out of 9 Corps of the ARC during WWII.
It looks like to me (picture is not clear)the color of the epaulet is red. Is it?
Thanks,
Beverly
Beverly,
Thanks for your interest in our American Red Cross uniforms. I don’t know much about Red Cross uniforms, but I can tell you that the uniform is from the Mahoning County Chapter of the Red Cross. I don’t know what Corp it belongs to. The epaulet color is red and the circular patch on the sleeve says “American Red Cross Service.” Under that patch is a rectangular batch that says “Volunteer.” The left sleeve also has four red bars and a “^” on it.
