29thinfgeek Posted April 28, 2013 Share #1 Posted April 28, 2013 Found a nice M41, it's in pretty good condition. There is a name in the collar, but it is too faded to make out, which is a shame. Insignia is in good condition, there's a little stain on the white part of the 69th SSI. Thought I would share it, I thought it was pretty neat since most 69th jackets you see are M43's.

Sabrejet Posted April 28, 2013 Share #2 Posted April 28, 2013 Very nice! I have a soft spot for '41s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capa Posted April 28, 2013 Share #3 Posted April 28, 2013 Great jacket-I too have a soft spot for them. I only have one, unpatched, but the jacket is an icon of WWII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captainofthe7th Posted April 28, 2013 Share #4 Posted April 28, 2013 Very nice example, like the rest of us this is one of my favorite jackets. I like the early chevrons, don't see those too much on wartime uniforms. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry K. Posted April 28, 2013 Share #5 Posted April 28, 2013 Very nice! I like the 41's also, just never kept them but one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29thinfgeek Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share #6 Posted May 19, 2013 Thanks for the compliments! They certainly are great looking jackets, this will not be my last one Frederik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted May 19, 2013 Share #7 Posted May 19, 2013 I have a penchant for '41s too. I've got a perfect replica which I wear as a leisure jacket...classic styling! (BTW..."Tillykke!" for winning Eurovision! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29thinfgeek Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share #8 Posted May 19, 2013 I still see a lot of jackets being worn nowadays that are similar to WW2 designs, in fact I found one of my dads jackets in the attic the other day, which looked exactly like a tanker jacket.
