I found this among a bunch of old clothes for sale. It\'s definitely horsehide and old. It\'s not a regulation A-2, but in ww2, regulations seemed only to be suggestions. The only difference is the pockets,
slash instead of flap. It\'s crusty, rough, dirty and neglected. Patches are dirty and appear to have been on forever. Talon zipper, can\'t see any size or manufacturer label. No owner info. Looks to be a size 36-40. Patches look cleaner in photos, ha ha. Yeah, I know. If it\'s CBI patched, shouldn\'t it have a 14th Air force patch instead of the generic?? I thought so too, but I got a pic of a P-40 pilot from CBI with same patch, so I guess guys did whatever.
