This is an accurate reproduction of the U.S. Army Model 1912 wool flannel service shirt, as issued to American Expeditionary Forces during World War I. Designed for comfort and durability in the field, it was worn under the M1912 or M1917 service coat and became the standard shirt for enlisted men and officers alike.
The shirt is made from fine khaki wool flannel, featuring a half-placket (pullover) front with three buttons, two pleated breast pockets with buttoned flaps, and a pointed collar. It has buttoned cuffs and a long tail for secure tucking into breeches. This pattern preceded the later M1917 version and remained widely used throughout the war, often visible in AEF trench and camp photographs.
Every detail—from the weave and shade of khaki to the shape of the collar and pocket flaps—has been meticulously replicated to match original Quartermaster Corps specifications, making this shirt ideal for collectors, historians, reenactors, and museums seeking historical accuracy.
