Sir Victor Goddards Tunic

[hermithill]

I see there has been a few posts already about Sir Victor Goddard which is great to see. If you haven't heard of this great man, I highly recommend you read his books 'flight Towards Reality' or 'Skies to Dunkirk' he was Chief of the NZ Air Staff from 41 to 43 in the pacific theatre. The other interesting aspect to his story is his connection to the paranormal and a movie that was made in 1955 based on one of his experiences 'The night My number came up' www.warhistoryonline.com/world-war-ii/victor-goddard-paranomal-experiences.html?edg-c=1 I am lucky enough to have recently added to my collection Sir Victors dress tunic as shown in Picture below. The belt and holster are added for effect in my display but wouldn't have been worn with his dress uniform.
