British WW2 Battledress 'Burma Rifles' 12th Army

In a very good condition a hard to find British WW2 battledress of the British 'Burma Rifles' 12th Army.
The battledress on the inside complete with the original label. only sadly because of wear not readable.
On the bottom lining is the name and number of the soldier still visible 'Bennett 2015'.
The BD comes in a very good mannequin size and
has the insignia original wartime applied to the tunic and has the rank of Major.
A very hard to find battledress with small traces of wear and age.

The 12th Army is one which is rarely encountered due to its short lived life.
Formed in May 1945 it took over a large number of units of the 14th Army and served in a fighting role in Burma against the Japanese until it was re designated Burma Command in November of the same year. Based on the rank and campaign ribbons it is quite possible the original owner served in one of the earlier 14th Army formations.
