Stunning jacket, Z! Would you care to share with us what you know on its provenance? How did you get the jacket yourself? And, do you wear it at all? Thanks!

Thanks for the comments! I bought this jacket online a couple weeks ago and just received it yesterday. I don’t know the history of the jacket since there is no indication that any name tag and patch were attached to it.

Beautiful! I have to ask, what's the story on that sweater? It's the perfect combo.

In our non-surprise Christmas gifting, my girlfriend bought me this Werber, same contract. A little rough-was deciding between this and the minty Monarch on TFL currently listed, but something about the torn knits wet my whistle a little more. Looks like the pockets here are ever so more scalloped than the above example. Also, in the Buyee listing, didn’t detect a USN stencil…
