RM tunic-what period?
9 Attachment(s)
Hi Guys,
I need some help from the uniform experts please. Have a look at the pictures and see what you think. There are some interesting features on this uniform. Regards Irv:) |
I would suggest inter war period by construction and materials only
|
Cheers,
As it only has the two top pockets I thought 20’s. The flaps aren’t scalloped and have no pleats. No bottom patch pockets, only inside pockets. Not sure when they went over to four pocket? I have a one breast pocket (same construction) which has two bottom patch pockets, (not inside). That is dated ww1. Also the bottom of the sleeves don’t have the extra shevron? Regards Irv:) |
Hi Irv, no knowledge of Her Majesties Jollies, especially their uniforms, however the brass 'RM' title is decidedly WW1 for me. Regards Mark
|
Hi Mark,
The RM is post 1923 as that is when they amalgamated. Pre 1923 it would have RMLI or RMA shoulder titles and buttons. Regards Irv:) |
Thanks Irv, as i said not an expert, a nice piece all the same. Regards Mark
|
As it happens the pockets still arnt scalloped up to the rank of WO1

Getting these pictures up the right way is a pain!
But the point was that this was a Marine and has the scalloped pocket. |
:Just got one or two RM badges Irv, or are they your spares on the wall there?:p
