wdbikemad Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) That would make sense I guess-Thanks Later evolved into the "Girls Venture Corps" (GVC) who used similar WRAF uniform, all since absorbed into the Air Training Corps (ATC)............ That's a big old size though, and appears to be a male blouse....? The "NP" referring to "New Pattern" (that replaced the button-up wartime version)......I wonder if the buttons are original to the blouse ? Not sure if males (as instructors or staff) served in the WJAC or GVC.............?? The original RAF issue had black plastic eagle & crown buttons on the breast pockets, as did the same blouses worn by ATC cadets in the 60s-70s if my memory serves correctly............GVC at this time wore the equivalent WRAF blouse with small silvered "GVC" buttons on the pocket flaps.........
