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.

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.
