Cold War RAF Flying Officer's SD Tunic & Caps (MID)
A most appealing Cold-War era RAF uniform group that belonged to Flying Officer R.S.Davis, this un-researched officer was mentioned in despatches as the tunic bears a correctly mounted pre-1994 bronze oak leak (silver coloured post 94) making this group a nice little research project and which may enhance it service history greatly.
The medium size service dress tunic is in very clean condition and still retains its original padded QEII wings along with a RAF long service & good conduct ribbon, the makers label is present inside the pocket and bears the officers name, one moth hole present on rear of collar, size 38-40 inch chest, under arm 18 inches, shoulder seam to cuff 28 inches (quite a tall person) all chromed/anodised buttons present.
The SD peak cap is also in very good,clean condition and made by the famous London hatter 'Bates of Jermyn Street' and in an approx. size 7 1/4, lovely padded QEII badge now with some age related tarnishing, the same size side cap is also in wonderful condition with its undisturbed chromed badge & buttons, this cap must have been worn by Davis more frequently than the SD cap as slightly grubby on lower edge but this could be improved, different makers label.
