Duke of Wellington Regt WO1 SD Uniform
A Duke of Wellington's Regiment (West Riding) service dress uniform consisting of jacket, trousers and cloth belt (shirt/tie/Sam Browne/braces not included but available as options). Jacket has Warrant Officer Class 1 rank badges to both cuffs (KC and QC, see below), staybrite DWR buttons and collar dogs, and ribbons for the Defence Medal, War Medal, Korea Medal, UN Korea Medal, a Campaign Service Medal (pre '62), and a Long Service/Good Conduct Medal. SD trousers are button fly, hook/loop and button waist fastening, button down belt loops, adjustable waist, and belt loops. This uniform has some damage (see below) but the description sounds worse than it looks - despite the moth holes it is an interesting item with a great WW2/Korea medal ribbon set. Unusually it also has both Kings crown and Queens crown WO1 badges, indicative of the time-frame covered by this man's service.
