airportable Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Had this fantastic mint Blouse lent me today to have a look at. So I thought I would share. Mint condition, just a little rusting on the collar hooks and eyes. I'm told by the person who lent it me it belonged to His Grandad. Never told family any history, only He served in Africa and ended up in Burma. Sadly His collection has been split between family members, a set of medals is known to exsist allong with a Samurai sword. Any info. on what the arm patches are I will pass on. Thanks. Andy.
