Here's my addition, it's an original flock printed shirt, the two patches are just resting on there, one of which is a British made example.

hbtcoveralls Posted January 19, 2019 Share #11 Posted January 19, 2019 This is a screen shot from a video taken in Normandy in the town of GAVARAY of soldiers of the 297th engineers constructing a bridge This very rare image shows a camp T-shirt. The name of the camp is not distinct and behind the GI's dog tags but this is the only image I've seen of a camp t-shirt worn in the combat area Tom Bowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
