3 помнить лучшие времена
Офицер этот, несомненно, был очень беден. Но вместе с тем можно было заметить, что мундир его сшит не из солдатского, а из хорошего тонкого сукна и сидит на нём складно и ловко. Вероятно, мундир и его хозяин помнили лучшие времена. (С. Голубов, Багратион) — This officer was obviously very poor, but it was evident that his uniform had been made of the finest cloth and fitted him like a glove. Like its owner, it had probably seen better days.
