Greetings,
I picked this up in a market in Hungary about ten years ago, and just found it again, it didn't cost a lot, and i liked the look of it..thare are 3 types of badges, bronze, silver and gold...i think it is some sort of award for industrial merit...i could be wrong. So if any one has any info, i would be glad to hear......
Thousands upon thousands of martyrs have heroically laid down their lives for the people; let us hold their banner high and march ahead along the path, crimson with their blood.
saw this in a collection. i would like to know what the carving on the butt is . i was told it was a trophy weapon and the letters relate to the unit that captured it. does anyone know anything about the boer war on this forum or are we to far back in time ? cheers. mike

i found this jacket one day as i was driving to work, i saw it hanging in a tree at a yardsale. When i saw it from the road i thought it was a coastguard uniform, but as i got closer i relized it was a coastal artillary man's uniform jacket. Here is the thing though, i've looked the uniform completely over finding all sorts of clues on it. The button holes are hand stitched and so is the collar and cuffs. Inside the arms there was stamped the unit and on the other inside sleeve had the soldiers name. But is it real, or is it a really good repro for some re-enactor?
