Today I met with an interesting war time picture from our war archives. In my opinion in this picture the russian pilot investigated by Finnish officer is wearing an B3 jacket or an Irvin
. The location of Rukajärvi (64°5′N, 32°47′E) where this picture is supposed to be taken makes me wonder, how common US flight jackets were among soviet pilots. The still existing propaganda text tells something chicken shit about how this person fled to Finland and how well we are (were) treating him for his bravery There is also some other issues those makes me wonder if this picture never ever has been taken in front. But the fact is that officially and also probably not Finnish Air Force did have allied flight jackets
