Polo shirt : Dili Surf Lifesaving Club
White polo shirt embroidered with the coloured logo of the Dili Surf Lifesaving Club (DSLSC) on the left breast. The DSLSC logo contains the caricature of a shark wearing a hat, smoking a cigar and flexing his arm muscles with the letters 'AS-NCE' tattooed upon his shoulder, within a life buoy. The makers’ label is sewn to the inner neck band, behind three white pearlised buttons at front. Shirt is worn and discoloured.
The Dili Surf Life Saving Club (DSLSC) was established by the initial members of the Australian National Command Element East Timor (ASNCE-EM). The Club was affiliated with Surf Life Saving Australia and official shirts, shorts and caps were sent from Australia. The DSLSC provided social and recreational activities for ASNCE-EM members and guests, such as a bar facility, movie and hot dog nights, beach days and Australia Day celebrations.
