OKAY, YALL. Get ready for some military fashion history! I did a lot of research for this suit, cause lemme tell ya, there are very few of these vintage military suits available online. In fact, despite this uniform having a 16 year run (22 if you include all-wool ones in the same style), I couldnt find a SINGLE one available online. And trust me, I looked.

Originally, this uniform style was only issued in wool. However, starting in 1966, the army also began issuing women this uniform style in a tropical worsted material, so it could be worn year-round with ease (source: http://webdoc.sub.gwdg.de/ebook/p/2005/CMH_2/www.army.mil/cmh-pg/books/wac/appendix-d.htm).
