50-70s 1st pattern US Army OG 108 - M

The OG-108 uniform was the standard issue uniform of the U.S. Army, introduced in 1952 and used until the 1980s. Its name derives from the color "Olive Green 108," a dark green practical for military operations. These uniforms were made of durable cotton, designed to be functional and lightweight, becoming a symbol of the postwar era and the Vietnam conflict.

In addition to the cotton version, there were specific wool variants, like this one, designed for colder climates. These garments provided superior thermal insulation and were used in situations where protection from the cold was essential, such as during the Korean War or in mountain operations. Wool was primarily incorporated into overcoats and linings, adding versatility to the OG-108.

Made from an olive green wool/nylon blend.

Dating: 1950s, Korean War.
