My first thought was WWI. The high collar.

It is a private purchase model 1917. Very nice.
It has a 1st army artillery patch with a coastal artillery collar tab with a discharge stripe and a 6 months over seas chevron. AEF coastal artillery are very hard to find especially in that nice of a condition. Got yourself a real good one friend.

Cheers guys, coastal artillery, I would never have guessed. Much appreciated SteveR

Hi Rene

WW1 artillery would be my guess based on insignia. Now that is a nice jacket! How you are well, Rene.
