This is a short army uniform jacket, probably from WWII (judging from Eugene Merchant's dates). It is a 36R size. There are four buttons on the front and a snap at the belt line. There are two buttoned tabs on the shoulders. Some wear is evident on the front right shoulder area with two holes, each about the size of half a dime. The color is olive and the fabric is wool. The inside label refers to this jacket as a "field jacket". Each cuff has a button closure.
