Interesting Cuff Rank Tunic

[Gary Cain]

I had been looking for one of these for awhile and was happy to find this one a little while back. Interestingly the officer (Maj S.F. Montague RSA) had one pocket removed to provide material for the shoulder boards(those thrifty Scots!). He recieved the OBE for his managment of a munitions plant during the Great War.
