trenchbuff Posted November 22, 2014 Share #1 Posted November 22, 2014 Can anyone confirm if this HBT jacket is WW2 Navy issue? It's similar in style to the USMC P41 jacket but without the EGA stencil and with hollow laurel pattern buttons. Although the markings in the collar are faded they look to be for an NX contract. I'm just not very familiar with these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pararaftanr2 Posted November 22, 2014 Share #2 Posted November 22, 2014 Yes, they are. If you look closely, you may still see remnants of the "U.S.N." stencil over the chest pocket as well. Regards, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
