Hi Guys, I thought that you might like to see this tab?
It is the rare second pattern tab introduced in 1942 for members of the KM clergy with more than 2 years service as Marine padre.
Sadly not mine, but a good friend brought it over to show me at the weekend and he was happy for me to share it here.
Cheers, Ade.
I waited 30 years to get this tunic. It is a well worn, field reapaired, late war tunic.
The Kuban Shield is original to the tunic.
The lining is rayon HBT and I cannot see any markings.
Ex-John Coy collection.

Hello folks, some pics of my project today.I need some input and opinions here from the experts out there.
I just went to my mailbox today after a nap, and this was in there. I bought this on-line, advertised as a CRG-42 practice grenade for very little money. I knew it was not. From the pics online I noticed the bottom had not been repainted, and looked like the unique greenish color and type used on WWII era Russian grenades, mines and ordnance. It was covered in an odd color paint except the bottom. I was hoping that under the paint, was the original paint, or at least some of it, and would be able to strip off carefully to reveal it.
Well I did, and this is what is under it. It is a fair amount of the original paint, as seen on the bottom. The body has one little hole, and you can see a frag sleeve under it. The grenade weighs 9.7 ounces, or 275 grams with the fuse. The fuse has the striker and spring still.
I believe this is a wartime production Russian RG-42. The 4 fuse well prongs are spot welded very poorly, and there are rough machine and tool marks. It looks correct to me, but have not seen enough of them to be sure. The color is definitely right. I understand there were many ways the fuse well was attached on WWII RG's, and have seen different types.
The fuse I am not certain of either, it is a UZRG, but do not know of the time period. It could be wartime, it has some of the characteristics. I can post better pics if needed.
Anyway, enjoy the pics of my completed project. I think it looks much better than the way it came to me. Regards, Steve
