For example:
- Doniger 42-21539 P = W535 AC29971
Star 42-18245 P = W535 AC28557

This is interresting about these two contracts and has been cited before and may be correct. I am still waiting for documentary evidence to prove they were one and the same contract. My Doniger 42-21539 and no name AC29971 are by no means identical jackets which could suggest differences within the contract or different contracts.
