British Army uniforms, 1933. '"Tommy's" New Uniform [left]: The tight "soldierly" collar is replaced by an open-necked shirt: the gleaming buttons....are discarded; the flat pockets of the tunic have turned to "sloppy" pleated patch pockets: the "spiral" puttees have given way to canvas leggings and the tight "pantaloons"...are almost plus fours. To crown everything, the hard-peaked forage cap is replaced by a soft helmet'. From "The Pageant of the Century". [Odhams Press Ltd, 1933]
