I just got a 1974 L-2B with some stains and a few frayed holes in the wrist knits. It was basically thrown in with a 1965 MA-1 that's in almost new condition. The fraying isn't at the end, but rather around holes midway between where the knit attaches and where it folds back inside. They don't go through to the inside knit. I just took some pictures that I'll post up later.
My question is how will the holes fair if the jacket is dry cleaned; will they fray more and expand, or do they generally stay about the same? If anyone has any experience with this, I'd appreciate knowing what happened in your case.
