Description
This is an original U.S. Army M-1941 Field Jacket, showing authentic service wear and several desirable personal features. The jacket remains in very good condition, with a working zipper, strong olive drab fabric, and all buttons present. A classic early-war combat jacket with great character. Inside the lower front, the jacket is hand-marked in ink with the name 'H. Kulpa', followed by his Army service number. This kind of period personalization is highly sought after by collectors and adds both historical value and research potential. If desired, the soldier can likely be traced through WWII records or NARA enlistment rolls. Both sleeves show clear shadowing where Sergeant chevrons were once removed.These 'ghosts' are a strong indicator of original field use and untouched condition—no post-war alterations or reproductions. This is a solid, named example of the iconic pre-M1943 field jacket, made even more desirable by the visible rank traces and researchable soldier identification. Jackets with original, untouched features like this are becoming increasingly scarce.
