The label has since been corrected to be more accurate to the original. Also the stamp should read ARMY AIR FORCES with an S on the end. That's also since been corrected.Original wartime Aeros said ‘Beacon, NY’ on the label. The patches would have been put on later, it’s unlikely to have been patched by the factory. Don’t know the exact date, but that’s the sort of Talon zip several companies used in the 80’s/early 90’s.
Who Made it?,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Precisely?
Either myself or Christine Harley, circa 1987
These are Aero's own patches. We did have these in 1987, not sure if they are added by the factory or not
We started putting a leather borders on CBI patches around or shortly after that time so possibly these were fitted from new
Back stitching would prove one way or another
