ED CHURCH M422a

[Thomas Koehle]

The latest addition to my collection thanks to @bazelot - THX for a smooth transaction btw.

Ed Church M422A in size 44

Patched with 5th Airforce patch
"Naval Joint Liaison Joint Operation Center" (thus the 5th Airforce shoulder patch)
WW2 CBI MAAG (Military Assistance Advisory Group)
HATRON-TWO "Heavy Attack Squadron"

Condition of leather is outstanding for a 80 yrs old jacket
liner was refurbished supposedly before the patches where added means about 1950 - knittings as well
