took some more pics of the airforce A2 - sewing of the chestpiece and ranks looks professional - my bet some GI`s had a trade
Wow Thomas! You're a big fan of A-2 deck jackets it seems. The one you got seems to be in great shape! Congrats! I just sold mine on eBay for £64. It's a 1984 issue and is literally impeccable with no issue, stain, or tear at all. Could have kept it but sold it as I have too many to use. I'm personally not so much into the original jackets and more into the functionality and durability.
