My dad was issued his first flight jacket in 1945. Is there anyway to identify which manufacturer made it. These pictures are from 1952, and yes that is my dad showing Johnny the Philip Morris bellboy around the Grumman Guardian.


Here's a pic of him after qualifying for his wings of gold in August of 46.

From the pocket shape in the first picture I would say it was an Edmund Church M422a. Long very pointed pocket flaps
