This one bugs me a little, not sure exactly why. But the CBI is a start, not appropriate for 5th AF and different than the other artwork. Strong whites on everything but the CBI. I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation, but there's just something about this one. Waddaya all think?

Here's a real patch for that squadron, Aussie made, not CBI.

I am always dubious about these jackets that don't have tacks on the backs of the shoulder area.Far too many civilian copies of this jacket in this style.If you look at the pictures for the B-15 contracts,they specify the tacks.

Didn't even notice that but you're right. The offset zip had me thinking a real jacket because most civies I've seen run straight down the middle.
