Ww1 royal artillery majors sd tunic with officer equipment -
Here is my only cuff ranked tunic i bought off Blunderbuss a few years back . It came out of French Theatrical costumiers ,and is only half lined inside. The cuffs have wear to the ranking braid ,and the weave,colour is markedly different to most Barathea made SD Tunics ive handled from the 1940s . The equipment build up is an ongoing project , still looking for an officers haversack and map case from great war. The India pattern officers canteen is aluminium and of course much flimsier than the troops pattern. The belt is dated 1916 ,and the binocular case 1915. The compass case is marked to Royal Field Artillery.
