Greetings everybody . Hope all is well.
Here is a neat bringback that was brought back by a British Artillery Veteran who fought in China Burma theatre. It's a nice honest original example. Havlock is missing 2 hooks and the the 2 hooks left are very rusty and thin now. Havlock belongs to this field cap judging from the "stains" that are alike on the havlock and the cap. Inside of the cap still retains the lining but the mft stamps are faded and not it is not possibly to see a clear date on the mft stamp.
What has always had me curious is the writing in hand on the havlock corner.
My assumption would be the soldiers name? My opinion. Would anybody be able to lend a hand in reading what is there written on the havlock? Id greatly appreciate anyhelp possible with this. Thank you.
