Vera Voulik Leather Artworks

[VeraVoulik]

Finished work on an A2. Back to 100th BG.
The original jacket belonged to S/Sgt loyal E. Sloan, ball turret gunner on lt. Miller's crew, 418th BS, 100th BG. Original jacket was decorated with 2 swastikas for 2 confirmed planes shot down. On my replica, these swastika were changed into "black crosses".

I dunno why, but the swastikas on the original jacket are painted on mirrored, not like nazi Germany usually sported them

Graphic editor work for certain American magazine reverse the negative film for a better composition.
US airmen would never know, until they saw the real deal.

I.E.

Smart move. A friend of mine was wearing an A2 made up with swastika kill markings in public and a more than one person lost their mind, and someone called a cop for a "hate crime".
Thankfully the officer understood what it was.

I was assaulted by feminists...

At least he knew what it represented on the jacket .

Ouch. Nazis are bad enough, but feminazis, look out.
