10 December 1941 (Volume 376)
Mr. Mander asked the Secretary of State for Air whether he has any announcement to make with regard to the issue of uniform to the Royal Observer Corps?
Captain Balfour Replied: A blue uniform of the battledress type has now been approved for wear by members of the Royal Observer Corps. It is expected that issues of this uniform will begin about the end of February.
So the image you have must be one of the very first batches of ROC Uniforms
