What an exquisite collection.  I have one complete uniform to a British Major of the 37th Infantry Division(India).  I feel that the British had among the most attractive uniforms of the war.

It's funny you saying that. Many, on this side of the pond, looked on in awe at the quality/ look of US kit in WW2:o

I do collect US Coast Guard uniforms and medal groups from all military conflicts of the 20th and 21st centuries, however, I do not think they are as aesthetically pleasing.
