New Dress Uniform For New Zealand Soldiers
Men of the 2nd New Zealand Division are to be issued with new drill uniforms before they go on their Christmas leave, which will begin about December 14. The new uniform will be a dress uniform, Many thousands of them have been made in readiness for the issue, which is suitable for summer weather and is to be worn on leave or for special occasions. This new dress can be easily pressed and kept in order. New Zealand's soldiers will soon be regarded as the best-dressed in the world. They have their denims, their serviceable khaki, and now their drill uniforms to complete the most comprehensive wardrobe ever issued to an army. It is hoped that the men will be in camp for a few days after the issue of the new uniforms, so that the general fit may be observed by the authorities.
