Description

United States Navy black uniform jacket owned by Charles Davis of Shakopee. The jacket's exterior is made of a rougher fabric that feels like polyester, while the interior is silkier. The jacket has a collared V-neck that goes halfway down the abdomen, where it is secured by two opposing rows of metal buttons, three on each side. The buttons are large, gold-colored, and stamped with the image of an eagle grasping an anchor in its talons. The jacket has one breast pocket and two larger pockets beneath the buttons. At the wrist of the jacket's sleeves are two rows of gold stripes and a star.
