What can you tell me about this uniform?
I picked this up at a garage sale today and it is very sweet. It is (I think) a World War II uniform. If not that than I would guess Korean. I have a jacket, flannel, and hat. Here are some pictures of them.

I am curious as to what exactly the patches mean and if I am correct that it is World War II. I love stuff like this, but unfortunately know very little. Anything you could tell me about it would be very sweet.
The hat has an Identification card which reads:
Name: Sgt. L. M. Vaning, Jr.
Organization Co E-53 QM. Reg.
Regiment: Ft. Benning, Ga.
NATIONAL MILITARY STORES INC.
Thanks!
Looks like he was overseas for 3 1/2 years.. maybe a Technical Sergeant during WWII. (SFC in today’s Army.)
