UNIFORMS


8th Air Force Flight Surgeon's Uniform & Cap Named to Capt. Thomas Maye ~ Flight Surgeon for the 714th Bomb Squadron, 448th Bomb Group, 8th Air Force, England. A nice 4-pocket Officer's tunic featuring a beautiful 2-piece riveted fine feathered Balfour (Gold) Flight Surgeon wing ~ hallmarked LGB 1/20 10K GF on the wing and Balfour 1/20 10K GF on the Caduceus. The uniform also features three British made metal overseas bars to cuff. There are a few sporadic moth holes that do not detract largely from the overall appearance of the tunic. The missing top button is in one of the pockets for resewing. The crusher style Officer's cap is missing the leather sweatband and shows some typical wear as shown. An original photo of the vet (wearing this jacket and cap) accompanies the sale. The vet is named in the group history as a passenger aboard Crew 57 that was part of the group's original contingent that began operations out of Seething England in December, 1944. A seldom-seen AAF uniform! SOLD $575.00	8th Air Force Officer's ETO Jacke English made uniform jacket ~ features theater made 8th Air Force patch to shoulder and bullion rank insignia.

9th Air Force Officer's Type B-13 Jacket Made by "Woolcraft Mfg. Co." in (size 38) ~ features English made silk 9th Air Force patch to shoulder and cotton embroidered rank insignia.
