NOS Lightweight Flight Jackets

[Ritchy]

Hi there
While searching for a used G1, I found a guy who was selling NOS lightweight flight jackets in sizes XS and S. Seeing this opportunity I bought several. I did well because my two daughters and my wife each took one. How can we date them?
I thank you for your contributions and wish you a very nice evening.

The extra small looks like it was made in 1979 according to the DLA number . The other jacket was made in 1976.

Great catch.

You should never date your Daughters!

Are sisters allowed? At least in West Virginia?

That's how 'Bruncles' happen!

With the explanation of @B-Man2 , it's easier. I found another one from GREENBRIER INDUSTRIES which dates from 1974.

Wow ! Nice find
Do they have any extra large’s in this condition?

@B-Man2 No, too bad otherwise I would have bought the stock. There are only XS and S
