USAAF 8th AAF 'ike' jacket

SOLD

Code: U22285



Dark green/brown 'chocolate' tailored 'Ike' jacket.  Fitted with cloth pilot wing patch, 'A. E. Utica' marked clutch backed 'winged propellors', clutch backed 'U.S' collar badges, matched pin backed 'Amcraft' acid test marked flight officer rank insignia and English made embroidered felt 'stubby wing' 8th patch.  Also has ribbons for the good conduct and ETO medals - the latter with bronze stars.  Overall condition is good but there are small moth holes and nips  in places.  There is a name in the pocket but this has been crossed out and a label has been removed.  All the insignia is original but it is impossible to be certain that it has always been on this jacket. Price based on the component parts alone.  Stock code U22285.
