Previously belonging to a colonel within the RASC, this gentleman saw service in most regions of the world by the time he retired, where he helped with the newly established cadet forces. The jacket is of great quality although doesn't include the original tailoring tag. Buttons are made by Gaunt using the London engraving, putting the date at 1945 - 1950 when they started using this on large buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- - - - - - -\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eLooking for more British Items?
