Got this babe a while ago, exceptional L.S.L GARMENT B-10.
The original owner was a flight engineer on the B-24 “Cocktail Hour” 64th BS in the famed 43rd BG, an unit that was known as “Ken’s Men” serving in the Pacific Theater during WWII.
The jacket is in amazing condition, knits are genuine and original CONMAR zipper working perfectly, mouton fur collar and lining are intact.
On the front has large painted insignia for both the 5th Air Force and the first style patch of the 64th Bombardment Squadron. On the upper left breast is a leather name tag, impressed “Russ Burnett”. The back of the jacket has a multi-color image of a B-24 Liberator which carries the number “428” on its tail, while the nose of the plane has the Indian insignia, as well as the names “Jane” and “Cheryl”, the name of the pilot’s wife and daughter respectively. The talented artist who painted this even created a shadowing on the plane with two colors of paint!
Here are some pics to entertain your Wednesday... wish you a good one!
