Not on most people's radar... the CWU-7/P

[Shanghai-Mayne]

I've come up with a theory. I believe the combination of CWU-9/P liner and CWU-9/P quilted pants were most likely used in the CWU-27/P coveralls. I think it would make sense.

27/P has its own padded one piece liner , and it’s Nomex as well.

Ok, but I still think that the CWU-9/P combo is for a jumpsuit/coverall.

For ground crew, perhaps.

A USAF vet stationed in ROK during the 70s/80s and also a collector stated this:
Quote;
“The CWU-9/P was NEVER meant to be buttoned or attached to ANY jacket… its a simple vest or jacket or additional layer, which can be worn as such… under or over almost everything.
It was never a dedicated liner to some other garments.”
End of quote.
