steph Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share #6 Posted November 17, 2007 the measure of the right chest pocket is 24 cm / 16 cm and left 25 cm / 16 cm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan Willaert Posted November 17, 2007 Share #7 Posted November 17, 2007 I've noticed it on jackets made by Brauer-Gressman Co Basically the pockets are the same size, but the right one's stitched lower than the other one. On my jacket the pocket is about 1,5" lower. The pockets were probably stitched on the sides of the jacket before these were assembled. There are no traces of pockets having been taken off and resewn... I'm sure Bryan F can add to this... Thi is an oiginal set from the ATF Website, look at the pockets: Here's my jacket, note the difference..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
posse Posted November 17, 2007 Share #8 Posted November 17, 2007 A lot of great HBT camo sets here, gentlemen! grts Bart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfryar44 Posted November 18, 2007 Share #9 Posted November 18, 2007 Steph, nice camo set. Congratulations! Johan is correct about the pockets, all the ones manufactured by Brauer-Gressman have the same lower pocket trait. Also, you can find photos of these uniforms in here: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v110/bfr...%20in%20France/ These are all the "known" photos and film footage that Johan, myself, and others have been able to find to date. Bryan Here's the set from my collection: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl1944 Posted November 18, 2007 Share #10 Posted November 18, 2007 Nice Camo sets gents I've been meaning to ask about this picture for some time. What do you think? Is this GI wearing a one-piece coverall or an army HBT camo set? The picture was taken in april 1944 at Camp Atterbury ,IN. The GI is a member of 1st BN, 422nd Infantry Regt, 106th Div.
