WWI Uniforms and Groupings
U-2659  Incredibly rare tunic and drivers cap for an American volunteer driver for the American Quaker Society of Friends, known as the "American Friends Service Committee". The service cap is English made with a European made Quaker badge. The bottom edge of the cap near the sweatband has some moth damage as shown. The tunic is of the summer variety with "ARC", American Red cross shoulder titles and the AFSC shoulder patch, both which have been damaged by insects. As the tunic is cotton, it is undamaged. The blue backings could be replaced on the shoulder straps with a little work. This is the ONLY Friends ambulance Service tunic that we have seen for sale. We did have another AFSC uniform about 10 years ago, but I believe that was for an adminstrator or aid worker. Rates a 10 out of 10 for rarity. $1595

The United States entered World War I in April 1917 and almost immediately instituted a military draft—with the threat of prison for those who refused to fight. Young pacifists urgently needed ways to serve their country nonviolently, which led to the creation of the American Friends Service Committee that April.

Early Service Committee volunteers drove ambulances in combat zones and built homes, roads, and villages in France. They also helped civilians in France, Belgium, Serbia, Austria, and Poland.
