CF Green Combat Coat (Seaforth Sgt)
CF Green Combat Coat for a Seaforth Sergeant. Coats, Combat, G.S. (Combat Jacket) Mark II. Marked "Onley 820"
Made of 8.3 oz nyco, Combat Coats followed the shirt patterns, ie: Slanted breast pockets, with a fabric loop on the left pocket for the dosemeter; cargo pockets at the waist with loops for magazines, Button front concealing a slide fastener. Removable liner secured by buttons. Reinforced elbows and rubber waterproofing on the shoulders. A distinctive feature is the corduroy lined collar which could be buttoned up around the neck.
Similar to the first pattern Coat, the Modified version had the shoulder reinforcements stitched in place as can be seen by the horizontal seam just above the breast pockets. A small button was added to the front of the Coat so the collar could be worn closed and folded down. The collar could still be worn up, secured by a now concealed button and tab.
The Mark II Combat Coat had many of the features of the Mark II Shirt, the most evident feature being the addition of a drawstring at the waist. This pattern also did away with the elbow and rubberised shoulder reinforcements.
