OverviewVolume 5 in the series, this book provides a detailed study of the traditional sack coat, frock coat, and jumper/bellbottom trouser uniforms worn by the American Navy throughout World War II. Additionally, cold weather outfits, khakis, dungarees and working uniforms worn by Seabees, beach battalions and shore paarties are highlighted. With over 1,200 previously unpublished contemporary and archival illustrations, documents and reconstructions, this is truly an epic volume. Special focus is devoted to rare and unusual tailor made uniforms featuring 'libert cuffs' and custom embroidery. Original experimental uniforms tested in 1946 are featured for the first time in any reference book. Also included are women's WAVE, Nurse Corps and Flight Nurse uniforms with heretofore unequaled coverage. As a bonus, the complete 1941 U.S. Navy Uniform Regulations with all wartime changes and amendments is included on CD-ROM. 800 colour & b/w images Full Product DetailsAuthor: Jeff WarnerPublisher: Schiffer Publishing Ltd Imprint: Schiffer Publishing Ltd Weight: 2.903kg ISBN: 9780764325847ISBN 10: 0764325841 Pages: 320 Publication Date: 31 August 2007 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Out of stock  The supplier is temporarily out of stock of this item.
