    When these items were purchased, I was told they were World War 2 era military clothing. Is there an easy way to determine the age of military clothing?

    Thanks!

      It's WW2 uniform, the rank on the sleeve is Technician 4th grade or Sergeant E-5. the lower right sleeve has the WW2 Meritorious Unit Commendation also known as merit badge. upper right pocket has the WW2 Honorable Discharge badge AKA the "Ruptured Duck"

      look for the tags of the inside pocket.

      Agree with tom and kerry. WW2-- tags inside the pocket should contain manufacture date.
