WAAC First Pattern Officer Blouse (Reproduction)

Dublin Core

Title

WAAC First Pattern Officer Blouse (Reproduction)

Subject

Women's Army Auxiliary Corps

Description

This blouse is a first pattern reproduction of the original WAAC blouses for officers. The epelets were worn across rather than up the shoulders, with hidden buttons on the pocket flaps. The material used originally was heavier than the later patterns, which was a large complaint among the WAACs.
