JD,

Not wishing to take business away from the Sapper shop as last I heard it was run by and ex boss of mine but I think EBay would be your best bet.

Here is the kit you would need to portray a RE SSGT EOD in the 1980s to early nineties-Summertime.

Shirt sleeve order (Rolled up sleeves no jacket) before 6PM or if evening or doing a Demo Combat jacket to be worn.

To keep it simple sew the rank badges on to a brassard, this will suffice and can be worn on the Shirt and transfered to the Jacket. The rank is placed from the top, crown, grenade,stripes.

The EOD Patch goes on the lower sleeve of the Jacket (I'll confirm which arm)

Lanyard worn on right shoulder with shirt.

Alternately, you could wear lightwieght jungle DPM shirt and trousers instead of the other shirt, trousers and jacket. (U.S. Issue jungle boots are ok to use as well)

All available on EBay, I will PM you links when you decide what you need to buy that can't be purchased locally.

I hope this helps.

Ry
