USMC Long Sleeve Khaki Wool Shirt

[Old Fogey UK]

What's the correct USMC terminology for this shirt, please ?
Is it still worn by the Marine Corps ?
Where can I get hold of one (new or used) ?
Thanks Guys.

Sorry, I haven't got any.
The type of shirt I'm talking about seems to be worn with the green service dress and a tie. It's just a long sleeve shirt with 2 button-down breast pockets. I'm not sure if it has epaulets.
All the khaki USMC shirts on eBay seem to have short sleeves and I haven't seen a long sleeve one on there since I've actively been trying to find one.
It looks like the kind of shirt I could use as an inexpensive alternative to a repro Rangoon shirt with my Pinks & Greens at WW2 shows.

WWII Impressions sells this one, but it's made of cotton, not wool:

this is the service b or bravo shirt it also worn with the service alpha uniform. It doesn't have epaulets it is generally made by creighton or arrow for best quality IMO. It is pressed with military creases. You can purchase authentic ones from any reputable uniform shop. The short sleeve version is the Charlie or service c.

USMC dress shirt on ebay brings up a few results. They come up small.

WH1 is correct. It's the Bravos and the Creighton Gabardine ones are indeed the best.
What size do you need? My husband and my brother are both Marines, I can see if we have a spare in the closet one of the boys can let go of, or I can go pick one up for you at the PX.

Thanks very much, Nashoba.
I'll send you a private message about my size when I get home from work.
