A fairly rare bird, or at least not very common. It was a little tricky looking this one up and I couldn't find out much about it. At first I thought to be a common Korean War era parka, a type encountered often without a liner. I left it because I was convinced that's what it was. But this liner stuck in my head, the first I've seen. So it bugged me so much over a pizza that I had to go back and grab the jacket and liner for ten bucks. From what I read, the liner is fiberglass and my itchy hands would agree. One of my first scores up here in Big Bear Mountain. I found a 1937 copy of Mein Kampf and an M1928 Haversack as well this morning. Any additional info on this would be appreciated.
