Nice uniform grouping, all pieces are named to Charlotte M. Gregg. Navy blue wool enlisted uniform. Quartermaster First Class rate patch on the jacket and blouse. Jacket has navy blue buttons and WAVES patches on the collar. The jacket has sewn in shoulder pads. The tie is the long one piece version.

The uniform is in decent, wearable condition, but it does have flaws. The ends of the cuffs on the jacket show some wear. One of the pockets on the skirt has a tear on the edge. There are small moth holes around the side metal zipper. The skirt has some light water staining along the bottom. The inside hem on the skirt looks to be trimmed with the same material as the tie. There are snaps added to the collar of the blouse to help it stay in place better. The bottom button on the blouse is chipped. The buttons on the cuffs have been replaced and are different than those on the front. Along the bottom of the blouse, there are some light brown spots (bleach maybe?). Very small pinprick hole at the back of the neck. There are a few popped seams on the sleeves.
