Manchu Warrior Posted August 11, 2014 Share #1 Posted August 11, 2014 I picked this up at the flea market today. It is actually a Cold Weather High Temperature Resistant jacket and I was issued one as a BFV crew member. So, technically I guess it is not a flight jacket. It is dated either 1980 or possibly 86 and it isn't in the best of shape. But, I thought the patch was nice enough and the price was low enough so home it went with me. Any information on the Black Hawk patch would be appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was issued one as a Bradley crew member. So I assumed it was more so a general purpose jacket and I appreciate the information. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
