THIS IS NOT A CIVILIAN ISSUE IT IS A PROPER U.S. ARMY AIRFORCE JACKET

Fitzwell Sportswear did have a B-15 contract, but this blue jacket with quilted lining was for the civilian market. Original Type on the label is always the first clue.

I think it has been on eBay before

Agreed. One of the many examples of the cotton/ nylon flight/ tanker jackets that proliferated the pseudo military market in the 50's and 60's
