I know this isn't a WW2 piece but I didn't know where I should post it.

First, looking at the Ribbons, they would look to date this tunic post 1980 and probably pre - Desert Storm (Just out of interest where would have US Forces been overseas around this time?). But the shoulder patch is for what I think is the 102d Inf. Div but I haven't been able to find any information about this unit that dates after 1945, does this mean they were broken up after the war?
So what i'm guessing that this is a WW2 uniform that has had ribbons added to it by someone try to increase the price.
Am I right?
I'm no expert on these sort of things and I don't want to buy a dud.
Many thanks
