Replacement for a tenue de sortie Mle46

[hoover]

Hi!

For my impression I wnt to assemble a tenue de sortie, a walking out uniform for my Colonial outfit.

Since I am not able to find a 44R original mle46 tenue de sortie (tenue de drab) I will use a replacemnt.

Most of the pics are showing the mle46, but some also US and brit. BD blouses.

What would you say? I am in favor of a M44 ike jacket with all the Colo patches. Former I used a british P37 BD, but I don´t like it.

Ike uniforms were also used....I have 1 Ike jacket 1st BPC....

Yeah, an Ike jacket would be ok. If it is early Indochina you could get away with a British battledress jacket, or even a KD summer tunic. Just keep looking on ebay.fr. The blouses keep popping up every so often.

You could always just wear the insignia on a tan shirt? Like the 3e BCCP in 1948-50.
