Constructed from green felt, the tunic is fitted with a set of "eagle and anchor" buttons, with the "eagle, globe and anchor" insignia on screwback badges on either side of the collar, a red and green fourragere cord on the left shoulder, "EXPERT RIFLEMAN" and "PISTOL EXPERT" badges on the left breast pocket, green-on-red sergeant's chevrons on both sleeves, a single gold bullion overseas service chevron on the left cuff, and a diamond-shaped unit patch featuring an embroidered blue "V" on the USMC insignia, associated with the 5th Marine Regiment. The interior is lined in green twill cloth, with no visible tags or markings. The fourragere is a French-particular decoration, given on a unit-wide basis to the 5th and 6th Marine Regiments for action on the Western Front, particularly Belleau Wood; while multiple Army units received the honor for World War I and II, they are the only Marines to receive the honor. Fine overall, with mild wear. Provenance: The Putnam Green/Sycamore Collection.
