Fratlanta Posted May 13, 2018 Author Share #16 Posted May 13, 2018 Now, I am kind of confused with the 3rd white jacket. No side pockets and the buttons looks like Navy button and not USMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fratlanta Posted May 13, 2018 Author Share #22 Posted May 13, 2018 I am also perplexed with this jacket. Looks like a khaki jacket except it's made out of cotton. When was this used exactely and what's the difference with the one I showed above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
