7th Division- small group
Article about: Guys, this is from an AD buy; jacket and pants are made of heavy cotton. Two of the three side caps do not appear to be US made. Thought you'd like to see. Best, Hal

Thanks, Ade. I'm guessing the last two caps may be British or French; made under contract pieces for US Forces, but no Broad Arrow or other markings are visible. Best, Hal

The rectangular one is definitly French made. They were private purchase. The other one with the rounded ends I am not sure of. It certainly isn't doughboy issue.
Nice summer set with all insignia. The shirts are getting hard to find. That one seems to be in very good condition. A lot of times you will see the shirt collar pulled up and over the stand up coat collar.

Thanks Steve for the added information and identifying the French made cap. Hal
