vintageproductions Posted May 2, 2013 Share #1 Posted May 2, 2013 I was very excited when I opened this box this morning. This is an Iraqi POW uniform, that was worn by Americans they captured. Also included is a image of USAF Capt. William Andrews, wearing a similar set. Link to post Share on other sites

RustyCanteen Posted May 2, 2013 Share #3 Posted May 2, 2013 Cool, I think that's the first time I've ever seen one. Link to post Share on other sites
Nkomo Posted May 2, 2013 Share #4 Posted May 2, 2013 GREAT set, Bob. Your set is the second one I've seen. The other set is in my personal collection. Link to post Share on other sites
vintageproductions Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted May 2, 2013 Arch, does yours have PW on both sides of the chest? All the images I have found only show it on one side... Allen your right but I don't think this persons story would be as funny as old yeller pants..... Link to post Share on other sites
