Teenagers in service. Circa 1955

Blue Denim work clothing was adopted as Standard by the US Army on 11 June 1919, replacing brown work clothing used before. The top was a jumper style pullover, the trousers had five pockets -- two front, two hip, and a watch pocket. In 1933 a one-piece work suit (coveralls) was adopted in blue denim for use by mechanics, drivers, machinists, and others in similar roles. This was in addition to and did not replace the two piece work uniform. These blue denim coveralls were used until replaced by herringbone twill one piece coverall in 1938.  By the 1950s blue denim fatigue became a fashion statement even as part of everyday uniform.
