Nice 100% original Tank Destroyer Bataillon Patched summer shirt, a nice size and complete (except for 1 button that is missing, and some period replaced buttons). It was certainly worn in the field, see photo's, as it has several period field repairs.. It has been used in the war, so wear is present on this shirt, but with a great patina. The shirt is marked with a lot of the owner's laundry codes. The label is still there but worn out. Overall a really great shirt!
A very nice and 100% original summer shirt of the famous Tank Destroyer Bataillon that endured heavy combat in the fighting in Europe!
History of the Tank Destroyer Bataillons
The tank destroyer battalion was a type of military unit used by the United States Army during World War II. The unit was organized in one of two different forms—a towed battalion equipped with anti-tank guns, or a mechanized battalion equipped with armored self-propelled guns. The tank destroyer units were formed in response to the German use of massed formations of armored vehicles units early in WWII. The tank destroyer concept envisioned the battalions acting as independent units that would respond at high speed to large enemy tank attacks. In this role, they would be attached in groups or brigades to corps or armies. In practice, they were usually individually attached to infantry divisions. Over one hundred battalions were formed, of which more than half saw combat service. The force was disbanded shortly after the end of the war when the concept had been shown to be militarily unsound.
