seebee1 Posted March 9, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 9, 2011 Another A-2 I have owned for many years. This time the 384th Bombardment Group who were based at Grafton Underwood. The owners label had been removed, however in one of the pockets was his information, Kendall Daskey. He was a Second Lieutnant, assigned 6th December 1943 and his last duty date was 25th April 1944. By and large I never researched this Jacket, though there is a fair amount of information on the 384th BG website. For its age it is in fairly good shape and the paintwork is strong. It is a little squashed, which I had not realised, due to the way I have been storing it. Anyway, hopefully Forum Members will enjoy seeing it. Regards, Clive.

DKNYC71 Posted March 9, 2011 Share #13 Posted March 9, 2011 Great jacket Clive! Very rare to find painted jackets in such a large size. I also like the squadron patch, a very well known squadron of the Mighty Eighth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjef Posted March 15, 2011 Share #14 Posted March 15, 2011 Beautiful, Clive! I really love the crude stile of the painting and the additional details like the patches, the little baseball and of course the information on Lieutnant Daskey! Thanks for sharing!

MattS Posted February 15, 2015 Share #15 Posted February 15, 2015 Old post, but the 384th BG website has updated a lot of their information and made it available online. Here's a detailed list of all of Lt. Daskey's missions: http://384thbombgroup.com/_content/_pages/person.php?PersonKey=5387 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
