Thirteenth Air Force
Australian Made Enlisted Service Dress Uniform
The 13th Air Force was activated January 18, 1943 in the South Pacific Theater of Operations. The 13th Air Force units saw heavy combat in the Battle for Guadalcanal, the Allies' first offensive operation. The 13th Air Force also took part in the various invasions of the Solomon Islands. The 13th Air Force was crucial in shattering and isolating the major Japanese naval bases at Rabaul and Truk. As the South Pacific campaign wrapped up the 13th Air Force joined the 5th Air Force in the South West Pacific and engaged in operations around New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, and the Philippines.
Many US enlisted service members assigned to the South and South West Pacific were issued or bought Australian made battledress uniforms. The uniforms were used by enlisted personnel as a standard service dress uniform. The uniform is similar to the Australian Army battledress uniform with one major difference, the American version has a buttoned waistband instead of buckled. This uniform was worn by an unknown aerial gunner with the rank of technical sergeant.
The fully rigged ship af Chapman was built in April 1888 in Whitehaven, England.
It served its purpose as a cargo ship under British flag under the name Dunboyne, then under Norwegian flag until 1915.
Dunboyne was bought by the Swedish Navy 1923 and the ship was used for training purposes. 1937, the ship was towed to Stockholm, where she was anchored at Skeppsholmen. The ship was bought from the Swedish Navy by the City of Stockholm for only SEK 5.000 in 1947. The Swedish Tourist Association (STF) rebuilt the ship and turned the ship into a hostel which opened 1949.
During approximately two years, af Chapman have gone through a very extensive renovation. The hull, deck, masts and rigging have received a total overhaul.
The cabins were made more comfortable and got a more ship-like interior. A couple of the cabins have been restored to its original style.
The ship was towed back to Skeppsholmen just in time for its 120th anniversary and re-opened as a hostel 1st of June 2008.
