Another stunning BD and I see it still has the cleaners tag in it, probably cleaned and then stored away.

Great BD! I assume that many of the BD blouses issued at the end of the war, for the demobilization, were Canadian made, since it was not worth sending back all the surplus BD sets to Canada. I guess there should have been a depot even in Italy, in Leghorn, were Canadian surplus uniforms were left after the Canadian Corps embarked to France in the spring of 1945, since unissued war produced Canadian BDs could be bought for peanuts at the local flea market still in the early 1980s....
