Original American World War Two Era M1941 Jacket, c.42" Chest German Chesterfield

Chesterfield

This badge with flash behind was worn on berets

However of particular interest is the apparently earlier writing beneath naming the vessel as USS LST 517

thought to be late or post-war and shot in the United States

some fraying to the cuffs as would be expected

Original American World War Two Era M1941 Jacket, c.42" Chest German ChesterfieldAn original US WW2 era M1941 jacket. Worn and used condition, perfect for that combat impression. General grime and dirt, one small cut on the rear (pictured). Very light wear on the collar, as these are prone to, some wear on one of the cuffs, which looks as though it has been worn turned up slightly. The Conmar zip appears original and functions well, take care as always of course. All buttons are present but there is no maker's tag. Size tag 36R
