WAC's in CBI
Hello To All
Its not really my area of collecting but in my family, Im the collector and when someone passes and was in the service ,they know that I would be interested and take care of any Service related item they may have ,Well my Great Aunt Annie passed and I got a box in the mail from one of here neice's (my Cous)with her service uniform.
Well she was a Staff Sgt. in the CBI theater stationed in India attached to the Air Transport Command.
This is what I have figured out from researching the patches on the Uniform.
They made some sweeet patches in india.
These are the bullion type on the jacket and the cotton on the shirt.
I'll try to get some pic's and post if anybody is interested??

Re: WAC's in CBI
Really nice group. I like the Khaki drill material blouse. Typical of British Army clothing made in India.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: WAC's in CBI
The piping is correct and is for the WAC. The actual colour is yellow/gold with green, not blue.
Cheers, Ade.
