Morning folks,

 

recent ebay find, current style ATC markings, but what do people think of the makers label and top pockets? (Ignore the rank markings, been told officers have RAF title instead of theAir Cadets one)

It's the standard "GS" smock introduced in 1984 (no specific pattern/year designation) as a replacement for the 1968 pattern........the label is typical/standard for this garment and had featured on later issues of the previous pattern......

 

These smocks were disliked by many as they were, in many cases, poorly designed and with hard usage the seams split and the pockets fell off........however, the pattern continued in production until 1993 when replaced by a new pattern........:-D
