So the other day I stumbled upon an amazing WW1 summer tunic of an Aircraft Mechanic. It has a patch on the side that is blue with a 4 bladed prop with the number 117 on it. Also has all the buttons with it and no holes. It is an amazing piece that I put a down payment on so I could secure it. But my question is how would I find out where this person severed? I was shocked how cheap it was. Once I buy it I will post pictures of it. I also tried to find some pictures of WW1 mechanics. I am an A&P mechanic and I really respect what it means to be one. I don't see many uniforms from WW1 these days like this. I figured someone here could help me out. I also found a uniform from the 3rd Aero Squadron with pants included. May pick up that one as well.
