easterneagle87 Posted November 8, 2011 Share #1 Posted November 8, 2011 Mondays are my days to breeze through my local haunts. Found this Field Jacket at a Thirft Store. Tag is gone at the collar. Tag in the left front pocket is faded beyond recognition. Brown plastic or possible bakelite buttons. Faux breast pockets. No zipper. Interior waist draw string. I know it's older, but from when? I will take your comments now. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OD MAN Posted November 8, 2011 Share #2 Posted November 8, 2011 It is a woman's M-1943 field jacket. Judging by the khaki colored lining it would be 1943-early 1944 pattern. Is there a tag in any of the pockets? Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manayunkman Posted November 8, 2011 Share #4 Posted November 8, 2011 Very nice. The buttons should fasten the opposite way than a mans jacket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted November 8, 2011 Share #5 Posted November 8, 2011 Womens' FJs are easy to spot by virtue of their fake breast pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
