US 8th AAF SSGT’s service tunic with bullion aircrew wings
Another recent addition to my small USAAF collection, was this nice aircrew EM’s SSGT 8th AAF 4 pocket service tunic,
and I think rather nice with a bullion aircrew set of wings. It would have had a reasonable ribbon bar at some stage too,
but this was gone, and as I don’t have anything to put there at present, I added the single ribbon for a bit of colour.
The rest of the tunic is exactly how it was picked up by a Belgian civilian who scored it in 1946 or 47!!
