New uniform,Treasury guards,blue uniform trousers,shirt,Washington monument,1937

Title: New uniform for U.S. Treasury guards. Washington, D.C., Aug. 26. Neat but not gaudy is the scheme of the new uniform of the U.S. Treasury guards. Blue shirt, blue uniform trousers with Sam Browne belt replaces the odd trousers and shirts of many colors formerly worn by the guards while on duty. A neat cap, patterned after the ones worn by the New York Coppers, tops off the new outfit. Furnishing the men with new standard uniforms is the first step taken by the U.S. Secret Service since they were given supervision of the guards. Harold nelson, a Treasury Guard for three years, is displaying the uniform in this picture, 8/26/37
