I can just picture a WW2 B-17 or B-24 crew wearing those (in that color!). I sure wouldn't want to be captured behind enemy lines (or any other lines) wearing one!! :lol:

Perhaps John C should starting making a clone of this iconic A2 when he starts taking new orders! :lol:

Its part of the new military policy...Dont ask,but do tell

It's certainly a new take on officer's "pinks".

That jacket was color matched to co-ordinate with this B-24.

that must be original ...

You are all wrong this is an experimental jacket made in 1943 to help CSAR teams finding downed pilots :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

In that case, the plane&crew should have been named "Strawberry Bitches"

A yellow Mae-West would have clashed horribly with the jacket--oh my!!
