I bought this recently from the antique dealer that did the estate clean out. This jacket was sent home in late 1967 to a family member. He was 21 yo and didn't make it 2 months in country before being killed. The antique dealer had been trying to get the local legion to pick it up as a donation but they would never show up. I'm proud to own it and show it to you all.Posted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image

Wow great piece. Sad to know the history behind it but it is great that you have that history and are keeping that soldier's memory alive.
