In a very good condition a 1943 dated British khaki drill airtex bush jacket as worn by the British Army, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force and many more.
This pattern of jacket came into use around 1942 with British Forces and saw continued use through to the end of WW2. It is made from cellular cotton, often referred to as ‘Aertex’, which is a lightweight, breathable fabric which is ideally suited to the tropics. They saw widespread issue in the Middle East, Far East and Italian Campaigns. Thise example is named to “A.L. Wood” A very nice example!
