Here is my latest addition to the collection. Yesterday a friend called me up to say that he was moving to a smaller place and was down sizing some of his stuff. He asked if I was interested in his Essex Regiment (Tank) khaki drill jacket. Of course, so he brought it over today. The cool thing about it is that the original owner’s regimental number is inside the left pocket flap (see the photo below). His name was A.J. Cantin who joined up on 2 May, 1940. All I need now is a set of Essex Regiment (Tank) brass shoulder title to complete the uniform so if there is anyone out there with a set to sell, please let me know.
Cheers,
John
