Original Item: Only One Available: This is an example of the iconic USMC M1912 Dress Blue uniform with the rare Bell Crown service cap. All buttons are retained and everything is in fantastic condition. This model of tunic and service cap are integral for any USMC or WWI US Collection.

This is a full M1912 U.S. Marine Corps Uniform, including the M1912 dress tunic, dress breeches, and the dress Bell Crown service cap, named to Private John M. Powell, USMC. The tunic and pants are both near mint, in fantastic condition with one discharge chevron on the right sleeve. The pants are stenciled “J.M. POWELL” on the interior. The Bell Crown service cap has a full sweatband, partially ripped but still intact. The cap features a black leather brim, supported by pressed paper or fabric. The red piping trim was added when the 1912 model was patterned. The EGA is affixed to the front and is period correct with both latitude and longitude lines on the globe. The chinstrap is beautifully worn in a way that compliments the entire uniform. The cap has one or two tiny moth nips but is otherwise flawless on the exterior.

John M. Powell enlisted in the Marine Corps on December 12th, 1917, likely hoping to make it to France before the war was over. He was stationed at the Naval Ammunition Depot in New London, Connecticut for most of his time in the service.

The United States Marine Corps
The decades following the War of 1812 saw the Marines protecting American interests around the world, in the Caribbean, at the Falkland Islands, Sumatra and off the coast of West Africa, and also close to home in operations against the Seminole Indians in Florida.

During the Mexican War (1846-1848), Marines seized enemy seaports on both the Gulf and Pacific coasts. A battalion of Marines joined General Winfield Scott's army at Pueblo and fought all the way to the "Halls of Montezuma," Mexico City. Marines also served ashore and afloat in the Civil War (1861-1865). Although most service was with the Navy, a battalion fought at Bull Run and other units saw action with the blockading squadrons and at Cape Hatteras, New Orleans, Charleston, and Fort Fisher. The last third of the 19th century saw Marines making numerous landings throughout the world, especially in the Orient and in the Caribbean area.

Following the Spanish-American War (1898), in which Marines performed with valor in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, the Corps entered an era of expansion and professional development.

It saw active service in the Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902), the Boxer Rebellion in China (1900). and in numerous other nations, including Nicaragua, Panama, Cuba, Mexico, and Haiti.

Between 1900 and 1916, the Marine Corps continued its record of participation in foreign expeditions, especially in the Caribbean and Central and South America, which included Panama, Cuba, Veracruz, Haiti, Santo Domingo, and Nicaragua.

New default shirt
Fit Type: Regular Fit, Color: Navy/Navy, Size: Small
Amazon has again proved that it did good research about what makes a good basic garment. I've been wearing these for a few weeks now and honestly I forgot about them because they just fit and are not annoying and don't look bad. They are good. Also the cotton seems high quality and is soft. Also the small fit as expected.

Durable, Comfortable, and a Great Everyday Basic
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy, Pocket Description: Plain Front
The Amazon Essentials Men’s Relaxed-Fit Heavyweight Cotton T-Shirt is exactly what a good basic tee should be—comfortable, well-made, and built to last. The heavyweight cotton feels substantial without being stiff, and it holds its shape nicely after multiple washes. The relaxed fit gives plenty of room for movement without looking sloppy, and the fabric has just the right amount of structure for a polished casual look. It works equally well for layering under flannels or wearing on its own. Pros: • Thick, high-quality cotton that feels durable • Relaxed fit for comfort and ease of movement • Retains shape and color after washing • Versatile for casual wear or layering Cons: • Slightly longer length may not suit shorter torsos • Limited stretch since it’s 100% cotton Bottom line: A sturdy, well-fitting T-shirt that’s perfect for everyday wear. Great quality for the price and likely to become a wardrobe staple.

Good quality T-shirt at a very reasonable price
Size: Large, Color: Dusty Blue, Pocket Description: Plain Front
Good quality T-shirt at a very reasonable price. The material feels thick and durable, giving it a premium feel. Fits well for a size L (5’10”, 178 lbs). The only downside is the sleeve length—they run a bit long and sit just above the elbow, so they don’t really highlight the biceps.
