M1898 & M1899 Enlisted Khaki Field Blouse

    Two lower pockets have the button down flap also, but are without the pleat and the flap is without the trim color. Note that the lower pockets are located almost directly under the arm.  A 2" wide waist belt with double buttons and rear belt loops completes the uniform, but can be dispensed with at a cost savings.  For State Militia, the lower pocket flaps can be ordered with the trim color in place of the khaki (and will match the top flaps), at no extra charge.

    The M-1883 US Eagle buttons are sewn on at no charge.

    Chevrons and Service Stripes are not included with uniforms, whether pictured or not, but can be added for an additional charge.

    The lower pockets have been moved closer to the front of the blouse, almost lining up with the upper pockets.  The changes to the trim color scheme allowed a minimal amount of blouses to be made while being able to be issued to any branch, since now the shoulder tabs could be clipped on, a sizeable Cost Savings! The Tab and Shoulder clips are supplied loose ready for you to sew on and dome with instructions. If you would like us to hand sew these attaching clips on, please add $20.00, and click on the appropriate line below.

   The M1884 Gold Bouillon dress coat chevrons are the same pattern as the M1872 chevrons, except they are made with Gold Bouillon.

    In 1898 the Army authorized cotton chevrons to be used on the khaki uniform. This was so that the coat and chevrons would shrink at the same rate. These cotton chevrons are ONLY for use on the khaki coats.
