An excellent and well starched KD uniform worn by Lt.Colonel L.H.Yates originally of the 1st Battalion Royal Welch Fusiliers.
Yates was commissioned in 1930 and served in Gibraltar, Hong Kong and the Sudan prior to WW2 , during WW2 he was with the 7th Battalion RWF in NW Europe then post war service during the Malayan emergency, he amassed quite a large wardrobe of private purchase KD clothing etc which I now have in my possession .
The jacket and high backed trousers are in very good stored condition with the trousers retaining all buttons, the jacket has no buttons present as they would have been the removable shank type for easy laundering, inside the trousers are the initials L.H (L.H.Yates), KD cloth belt also present.
