The Priory CCF Lincoln
 
3 Attachment(s)
A recent acquisition -- not that I'm a cadet collector, but it's just such an odd item to turn up here in South Australia: a Women's RAF No.1 Dress jacket to the Air Cadets of The Priory Academy, Lincoln. Still very much a going concern, from what I found online. One thing, though; is it usual for the 'birds' to be facing towards the wearer's back?

CCF- Combined cadet Force could a combination of either Army, RAF or Navy

In this case it is affiliated to the RAF, the wings are standard RAF dress uniform insignia

Thanks, Bob. By 'odd' I didn't mean the item itself, which is clear enough. I meant such an item turning up where I live.
