Hi. Not long ago a n-2b jacket caught my eye and I had to get one. I've since been looking for info on these jackets and so I found this cool forum..
Few questions have come to my mind:
Im curious what kind of troops used these jackets and did they see battle?
Were they manufactured for civilians from the beginning or from later 70s?
Some maintanance questions:
Has anyone here tried to replace the fur hood trim (mine has dried up and falling to pieces)? Any tips welcome I have some new old fur to go with.
How should I store my jacket so this fur degredation would not happen again?
My jacket has a stamped code inside next to the zipper. I'm wonderinf it could be an aircraft serial code or a serial for a person?
