Original Items: Only One Set Available. This is a lovely 1954 dated Khaki Uniform tunic, owned by Geoffrey K. Bourne, who during WWII was a brilliant staff officer, as well as commander of the 21st Anti-Tank Regiment, Royal Artillery and the 152nd (Ayrshire Yeomanry) Field Regiment, Royal Artillery.
