C064384 LES FUSILIERS DE SHERBROOKE BATTLEDRESS TUNIC.

A khaki wool tunic with a four painted metal dish button front closure, and a lay-down collar, and integral button shoulder straps. A tab and corresponding metal dish button are under the collar at the front. There are pleated patch pockets to each breast, whose scalloped flaps have button closures. The outside seam slashes at the pleated cuffs also have single, hidden button closures. All of the metal dish buttons retain all of their original olive drab paint, and all appear to have most of their original stitching. Three stitched eyelet ventilation holes are beneath each armpit. An integral belt, with a nickel-silver buckle and vertical wool retaining loop on its opposite side, is to the waistband. The back has multiple pleats to it above the waistband. The interior collar, waistband, and along either side of the front closure is lined in tan-coloured cotton, and a large, vertical slash pocket, in the same material as the lining, is to each interior breast. To the right interior pocket is ink stamped, in black, "Size No. 5", "Height 5'5"-5'6", "Breast 36 to 37", "S&G Clothing Co. Ltd., APR. 1945" and a "C" broad arrow. Three vertical button holes are to a horizontal fly along the interior rear waistband, which allowed the tunic to be buttoned to the matching trousers. Shoulder flashes representing Les Fusiliers de Sherbrooke are sewn to the shoulder seams, as well as "Canada" flashes and Corporal rank chevrons are to each arm. The right sleeve, above the cuff bears a Group B tradesman badge and 3 years overseas bars. An unknown red lanyard is attached to the left arm. Pristine tunic.
