AEF Service Coat (Brit. Made), 36th Div.

[36-tex]

Bought this at the Hastings Show last weekend. The dealer had held it for me (Because I had forgot about it!). No moth bites or other damage I can find. I think the POPPY on the right pocket is a cool addition!

 

SORRY Ricardo, I had to try and top you!

Great looking coat!

 

Yes, those markings make it one of the 1918 wartime emergency specification British contract coats.

Nice find.There is always some good stuff at Hastings.Now you need a British made over seas cap to go with the uniform.
