{"product_id":"srg007","title":"Genuine Welsh Guards Tunic - MILITARY SURPLUS (7)","description":"The Welsh Guards (WLSH GDS; Welsh: Gwarchodlu Cymreig), part of the Guards Division, is one of the Foot Guards regiments of the British Army. It was founded in 1915 as a single-battalion regiment, during the First World War, by Royal Warrant of George V. Shortly after the regiment's formation, it was deployed to France where it took part in the fighting on the Western Front until the end of the war in November 1918. During the inter-war years, the regiment undertook garrison duties in the United Kingdom, except between 1929 and 1930 when it deployed to Egypt, and late 1939 when it deployed to Gibraltar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe regiment was expanded to three battalions during the Second World War, and served in France, North Africa, Tunisia, Italy and Western Europe. In the post war period, the regiment was reduced to a single battalion and saw service in Palestine, Egypt, West Germany, Aden, Northern Ireland, and Cyprus. In 1982, the regiment took part in the Falklands War. In the 21st century, the regiment has deployed as peacekeepers to Bosnia, and on operations to both Iraq and Afghanistan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003eNote: the jacket you are buying is the jacket shown in the images - last image is generic to show where we measure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasurements in cm (LAST IMAGE SHOWS WHERE WE MEASURE)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003eRegiment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e  Chest  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e  Shoulder  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e  Back  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e  Arm  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e  Neck  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e  Waist  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003eWelsh Guards  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e43\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e45\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e73\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e64\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e40\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align: middle; text-align: center\"\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e44\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLabel - as well as we can read\u003cbr\u003e-----------------------------------------------------\u003cbr\u003e1ST BN WELSH GUARDS\u003cbr\u003eTUNIC WESH GUARDS\u003cbr\u003eR\u0026amp;F                                            C6232\u003cbr\u003e                                                      \u003cbr\u003eCDSM \u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: red\"\u003eSWEENEY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWARRANT NUMBER           WG0504\u003cbr\u003eHEIGHT                                      5' 10\"\u003cbr\u003eNECK TO WAIST                     17 1\/2\u003cbr\u003eFULL LENGHT                         29\u003cbr\u003eHALF BACK                             8 3\/8\u003cbr\u003eSLEEVE                                    25 1\/2\u003cbr\u003eCHEST                                     39\u003cbr\u003eWAIST                                      34 3\/4\u003cbr\u003eSEAT                                         41\u003cbr\u003eCOLLAR                                   17 1\/8\u003cbr\u003eSHIRT COLLAR                       15 3\/8\u003cbr\u003e*********\u003cbr\u003eDRY CLEAN ONLY                [P  ]\u003cbr\u003e----------------------------------------------------\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePlease note: as these are military surplus and may have wear and tear from use by the military.  They may have stains and repairs, but these are all part and parcel of military surplus with genuine patina.\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"MILITARY SURPLUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43959153623180,"sku":"srg007","price":299.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/7442\/9324\/files\/31033.jpg?v=1742864903","url":"https:\/\/commandoaustralia.com\/products\/srg007","provider":"Commando Australia Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
