Thought so! And I may have that patch showing on his sleeve. I think I remember seeing it, or one like it, in an old trunk that belonged to my parents. If so, maybe I'll spring for an "At The Front" M-41 and "reconstruct" Dad's cadet jacket.jack31916 said:Cool pic ! And yes, your father is wearing an M-41 jacket.

Atticus said:Cool! I glanced at the "At The Front" site today. They have a nice M-41...but right now they're sold out in my size. Hopefully they'll restock in May.
