I don't know how I got the pictures onto the histroy but hey! I got them on here. John hahahaha
Sorry John, the tunic and cuff title etc are all copies.
Cheers, Lez.
John it will be better to start your own thread for this tunic as this thread refers to a specific and distinctive group, plus better and close up photos will probably be needed of the tunic and insignia , it doesn't look good as Lez has said , i hope you didn't pay a lot for it !!
cheers

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Sorry John. The whole thing is fake.
I have made a new thread about it for you.
Note the lining to the lacket, the incorrect letter "H" to the cuff title, weave of the cuff title, etc. We have several threads on the cuff titles alone.
The tunic only has a value as a re-enactor item.
Cheers, Ade.

You are looking at around £115. My friend Richard sells similar at that price:
