PADDY said:Thanks Andrew. It will hopefully form part of a display for an RAF SQN reunion at the former Officers' Mess at RAF Middleton-St-George.

Forgot to say. Two weeks ago came across in the local Oxfam shop an NOS wartime RAF Officer's serge blue battledress (the little short waisted jackets for those who don't know the title). £30. Yes, I thought if I waited a few days it would go down in price (as these things do) and no-one would want to pay £30 for it where I live. WRONG!! it went..duh! Lesson learnt.
aswatland said:£30 for a wartime RAF war service blouse is dirt cheap. Many that sold are the 1949 pattern and passed off as wartime. Decent sized moth nip-free wartime issued ones go for £180-£250.
aswatland said:Yes possibly the work of IAC. Nice wearable jacket. Is that a strip of leather on the left inside of the fleece?
