Interestingly enough, I have one of these smocks that was “issued/given” to a 1st Can Para member upon him being discharged from the hospital in Belgium. They lost his Denison Smock and this is what they gave him as a suitable replacement. He wore this for the remainder of his time there and brought it back home with him.
