Sun Tans
Just a general comment on overseas kit - In my day just after WW2 we British had but a choice of two sizes of uniform (too big or too small) -
looking like something out of a circus in our newly issued tropical kit .
-Whereas the US kit allways appeared to be of far superior fit and cut - known as Sun Tans - Much smarter as were most US uniforms of the time - although today British issue has improved.
