    Description

    Facts/Observations:
    Material is olive-drab-colored cotton
    Cargo- and rear pockets have button closures
    Two Buttons inside waistband, front and back, for suspenders
    Front pockets and fly each side have working zippers branded "Talon," and the fly is topped with 2 buttons.
    The front knee areas are double-thickness from crotch down to mid-shin
    There is some spot-staining but wear and fading appears minimal, possibly because the fabric is so substantial.  This garment weighs 2 lbs. 6 oz. (For comparison, a 46 x 30 pair of Levi's 550's weighs 1 lb. 15 oz.)
    Tags:
    The 'redacted' black ink stamp in the rear waist band (inside)
    looks like
    "Waist 36 Inseam 34"
    Next is that is handwritten in blue ink "34  33"
    The "CS" tag is a laundry tag, stapled in, with "Cp McCoy," presumed to mean Corporal McCoy
    The handwritten blue ink on right-rear pocket liner is illegible with the exception of numerals
    Assumptions:
    Military.  Evidence--Corporal McCoy
    Military.  Evidence--Ink stamping of sizes on waistband
    Military.  Evidence--Button-closure pockets (with zippered exceptions)
    Equestrian.  Evidence--Stirrups
    Equestrian.  Evidence--Jodhpur-like large hip and thigh measurements, relative to waist and shin
    Theme--Millitary/Equestrian
    Time Period Manufactured--SWAG, 1930's - 1950's.  Evidence--lack of modern-era tags.
    Please pardon the verbose nature of this list.
    I'm trying to lay out the pertinent characteristics so as to come to an accurate description of these very unique breeches.
    Photos contain precise measurements.
