Original Item: Only One Available. The time honored tradition of “playing Army” or “Navy” dates back centuries. Children have always wanted to emulate those around them and if they’re from a military family they do so to honor them. It was no different during the WWII era. The war was in every household, on the radio and at the picture shows. There were countless recycling drives and award systems specifically for children and the War Effort, this was essentially a way of life and the children wanted to look the part while playing the part.

The uniform came to us from the American Armoured Foundation, Inc. Tank and Ordnance Memorial Museum. The AAF Tank Museum was a living memorial dedicated to the Tank and Cavalry soldiers of the world. Before 1981 some of the artifacts that make up the AAF Tank Museum was a private collection belonging to Mr. William Gasser. Mr. Gasser felt that his collection would be beneficial in educating present and future generations to the sacrifices made and the technologies gained during war. Therefore, in 1981 the AAF Tank Museum was established as a non-profit charitable organization, and Mr. Gasser's donated his private collection to the Tank Museum. Mr. Gasser is still active as Volunteer Director and Curator of the Tank Museum and his knowledge of military history has been a great asset to the museum. Unfortunately after 20 years of operation it had to close its doors, which is when this uniform was acquired.

The uniform is in good condition with the typical signs of wear as done by a child. While there is no significant damage to either of the two items, the stitching on the jacket is loose in some areas. There is light staining and mothing present.

A lovely set ready for further research and display.

I am hard to please...especially expensive products...
K...So I have this 26 ft. sailboat. I have all the professional equipment you can use to restore fiberglass shine. However, a 15 year old sailboat's topside will usually have pitting that you COULD sand down and shine.. but this is a risky step as you think the gelcoat and if you go through, now you have an eyesore of an entirely different nature... My only problem with trying this was the idea that it would fade out shortly and possibly yellow. However, a bigger concern is continued breakdown of the glass surface. An over-riding concern. Wax on a surface that is pitted is usually short lasting and does shine well..good for 3 months, maybe. I bit the bullet and bought this after looking at it's competitors. BUY THE KIT, NOT JUST THE POLIGLOW. The cleaner worked better than any other I have bought. I don't know why. It just did. The scrubbing sponge is perfect for the job. I used a smaller dishwashing scrubber in tight spaces..it seriously was inadequate. This kit was made right, I'm thinking. Following the directions to apply per the bottle. I was skeptical about using a damp mit. I have done the entire cockpit area of the boat at this point with 6 coats and used maybe a half an inch of the product. And the boat looks absolutely AMAZING. Will this yellow? Will it last a year? IDK, but other reviews suggest positive experiences on both counts. Best of all, this will HALT the ongoing beating the topsides takes. (On another note, don't use this on nonskid. It's slick..just my opinion, maybe no more slick than new nonskid. But there is a really great product if you search "nonskid fiberglass surface restorer." Expensive but works.) Best description I can give you on how this will turn out is .. you know how good a surface that is aged looks when you wet it? That..but it stays. Yes, you will need 4-6 coats. But it dries very quickly and still doesn't use much product. At this performance level, the price was worth it. And I am frugal beyond belief. I would recommend that you do professionally buff any fiberglass surface with a good medium one step cutting compound and a professional buffer before you apply this to get best results. DO NOT USE THIS ON SURFACES THAT ALREADY ARE SHINY. It says so right on the kit. I also agree your smoothest outcome will come at room temp vs applying int the sun or significant heat. It dries quickly and doesn't even out as well before drying. Still, it will look great.

YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!
This is the best product I’ve ever used on our boat! We have a 26-year-old Tige wakeboard boat that had heavy oxidation and water spots. In addition to a heavily faded gel coat. I spent a few hours working on it and it completely restored our boat! I got the recommendation from my father in law after he used it on his RV. The results speak for themselves. I highly recommend this product!

Wish I Had Used This Sooner – Stop Debating and Just Buy It!
Wish I Had Used This Sooner – Stop Debating and Just Buy It! After a lot of debate, extensive research, and way too many hours spent buffing my RV with other products that never fully delivered the results I was after, I finally tried Poli Glow—and I am extremely happy I did. My only regret is not using it sooner instead of letting other people's opinions talk me out of it. The difference in how my RV looks after applying Poli Glow is genuinely impressive. The high-gloss finish it lays down on the fiberglass is deep, clean, and long-lasting in a way that the other products I tried simply could not match. The application process with the included mitt is straightforward and far less labor-intensive than traditional buffing and polishing methods, which alone makes it worth switching to. The hydrophobic properties mean water beads and rolls off beautifully, and knowing the UV protection is working to shield the fiberglass from the relentless Las Vegas sun gives real peace of mind for long-term appearance and protection. For anyone who has been going back and forth on whether to try Poli Glow or sticking with whatever you've been using—stop debating, stop listening to everyone else's opinion, and just try it. The results speak for themselves and I won't be using anything else on my RV going forward. Highest possible recommendation.

Works Great, A Lot of Elbow Greese, but Worth the Effort!
Transformed our motorhome exterior . It looks new, brighter, and no haze! It helped to watch the instruction videos on YouTube.
