Vtg WWII US Army 63rd 78th Div Uniform Ike Jacket With MUC Patch CIB Pin #5195

All 3 pieces are classic wool. Tie hat and belt included. There is a little dirt on the left jacket cuff and some writing in the pants waistband.

Other than that, this is in GREAT shape!! This uniform includes patches for the 63rd and 78th divisions. The CIB patch is one piece, not two, and is stamped "sterling" on the back. I'm a little puzzled by the pins on the lapel. They read "Pro Patria Vigilantis", which is similar to the motto of the Signal Corps. Their motto is "Pro Patria Vigilans" and their coat of arms is not the same as this one. I'm afraid I don't know what those pins mean.

There is also a MUC patch on one sleeve. This uniform was acquired from a large military collection, so I'm afraid I don't have any additional background that I can provide. Please let us know if you have any questions. Jacket marked 36R which is Small. Shirt is marked 14.5x32.

Pants marked 31x31 but measure 32x29. The pants appear to be in a slightly larger size range than the rest of the uniform. Pants have room that can be let out.
