WW2 Royal Engineer Sergeant's Far East Uniform Group

A wartime dated Royal Engineer serjeants uniform group in wonderful clean condition.
The Indian made 37/40 pattern battledress blouse retains good colour and still with all its original cloth insignia, makers ink stamp present on back of internal pocket, faint 1942 date, possibly a 'Shah' produced BD.
The BD is a small to medium size, approx. 36 - 38 inch chest, with wartime replaced civilian type buttons which were commonly replaced due to the metal buttons forever coming off, with a small amount of service wear to waist strap, one small hole near back shoulder blade close to seam, otherwise incredibly clean for a BD that was worn in the Far East (India / Burma).
The slouch hat is British made by Denham & Hargreaves and dated 1943, this has a real ''been there'' look about it, lost its stiffness due to climate and monsoon rain, some minor tracking but no holes, still retains its R.E pagri flash which did have a cap badge fitted, now absent.
A twice named kitbag with a misspelling (Hilditch or Nilditch), which name is spelt correctly I simply don't know as have been unsuccessful in tracing his 4038422 service number.
Found inside the kitbag was a single webbing gaiter bearing the same service number, would be wonderful to find the sergeants history, not listed on the casualty list either.
Nice group, very clean.
If prefer to pay via Bank transfer details will be supplied.
Sorry UK sale only.
