I purchased this nearly 5 years ago. Always wanted one from WWII. It came from an estate if I remember correctly. As you can see it’s a RoughWear. Little did I know at the time the same company made A2’s. I condition it once or twice yearly. I had it repaired, there was a tear on the R shoulder area. The vets son said it spent its life on a hangar. Overall it’s in good condition. Has a Crown zip that works well. A few tender spots here and there but it can be worn. I might give it a shot this evening or tomorrow since a nice artic blast will be making its way to the east coast.
One day I hope to get a repro B3 for winter use. I’ve seen a lot of nice ones pictured here on VLJ and wanted to share this with the forum.
