doinworkinvans Posted October 28, 2015 Share #1 Posted October 28, 2015 As some of you know, the Pacific AAF is my passion and one of my all time faves is the Australian battledress being used among the 5th and 13th air forces. Recently on Ebay, I saw one of these being sold with the flight jacket patch still applied. Seeing pictures before but never seeing one for sale or in real life I was amazed. Still on the hunt for one as it quickly exceeded my pockets. I thought I would share some photos from 307th BG of this example of flight jacket. Hope you enjoy as much as I do.
