Agree with that, there was an older Tom Keane who was the head of a Sales type professional organisation in Adelaide? Anyway, he had died earlier in 48. That could be a source of the clothing. It was common practice for the clothes of servicemen who did not return to be donated to charities in which case I would think any names would have been torn out but the question is why the manufacturer's labels? Part of that answer could be that there were numerous salespeople on the road selling their wares to shops and other retail outlets. These men would sometimes sell their old demo stock but would remove the manufacturer's labels before doing so. regards the servicemen's clothing, that would apply to US servicemen and therefore US-made garments.In other words, whilst Thomas Ambrose Keane of Williamstown Victoria is not the SM, it might be that the SM had some of his stuff.
