Hi Marco
I believe the A2's were made by Real McCoys although they dont seem to push the fact on the website 'www.realmccoys.co.nz' unlike Eastman with their 'Pearl Harbour' jackets! Having said that I haven't trawled through it - it might be tucked away there somewhere. I do recall thier ads in Flypast mag and they use highlighted the fact

RMCNZ also provided Tanker jackets, such as the one used by the Medic. I had one from the show, sold it as it was just a little small in the shoulders.

Hi Marco,
I know nothing re. BoB leather jackets but in the website www.sofmilitary.co.uk you will find a BoB section with the jump suit (jacket + trousers) worn by the characters Dukeman and Speirs in different episodes.

Not so, A-2s can be seen in the post-D-day episodes, the pre-Bulge episode, worn by Harry Welsh, and in the post-war "Points" episode worn by Richard Nixon.
Not to mention the A-2s and a B-3, worn by Herbert Sobol, are seen worn in the U.K. training scenes.
Yeah, I know, I've seen the thing too many times...

I have always thought that the B-3 looks very tight across the chest. The leather looks quite stretched and stressed.
Nice jacket, I like the colour and texture.

Last time I saw the series was when it first aired, but last week I came across the box set for half price- can't beat that. What a fantastic production, i'm still on the first- making it last- but it really was well done and as opposed to a movie it's great to have the time to spend on character dev, the gear and locations.
Aside from the jackets, who made all the other uniforms etc and were they accurate?

The wardrobe department hired the Corcoran Boot Co. to manufacture 500 pairs of paratrooper jump boots to the original Army specifications.
All of the 1,200 civilian costumes were authentic vintage clothing.

Hey,
Look at the tunneling on this one. You can't even see the knits.
