Lieutenant Thomas Hendy - Australian Flying Corps Bear

Lieutenant Thomas Hendy helps us remember the men of the Australian Flying Corps who pioneered Australian military aviation during the Great War of 1914-1918 – and the proud heritage that led to the Royal Australian Air Force and the Fleet Air Arm.

Hendy's uniform reflects the full-length leather 'Maternity Pattern' flying jacket and leather flight helmet worn by many aircrew of the A.F.C. to provide warmth during flights in open cockpit aeroplanes. The large angled external pocket on the left-breast provided quick access to maps and notebooks, while beneath the warmth of the coat many would simply wear the standard dismounted troops' khaki uniform of the Australian Imperial Force. International limited of just 5,000 bears. Hendy comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity.

Sergeant Grey Wilson - Greatcoat Bear

Sergeant Wilson wears one of the most iconic and versatile uniform items of the Great War - the A.I.F. Greatcoat. Before service abroad most Australian troops had never seen snow or ground ice, and the chilly winters added to the hardships men faced at Gallipoli, in the deserts and on the Western Front. The Greatcoat was essential protection. The heavy woollen khaki coat weighed about 6.5 pounds (3kgs) and served as an outer jacket, additional blanket and often as a shelter. Grey also has his Brodie helmet and anti-gas mask carry bag at the ready. Limited to just 5,000 bears for worldwide collectors, Grey comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
