This is a historically significant, single-owner World War II U.S. Army Air Forces (USAAF) Enlisted Man's Uniform Grouping. This collection belonged to Sergeant Arthur E. Johnson of Connecticut, who enlisted in Hartford on August 11, 1942. The uniform features his hand-stamped wartime laundry mark J-4307 inside the collar lining, matching his official Army Serial Number (31144307).

This uniform represents the vital ground crews and flight engineers of the "Mighty Eighth" Air Force who kept heavy bombers flying during the strategic daylight bombing campaigns over occupied Europe. It has been kept together as a complete estate group and is offered in as-found condition.
