doyler Posted October 24, 2017 Share #26 Posted October 24, 2017 Another small detail it appears the top of the chute canopy on the wings were polished smooth. I have a similiar set on a ike found in a thrift shop many moons ago by a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellumbill Posted October 24, 2017 Share #28 Posted October 24, 2017 Thanks for posting these great jackets. Another thought, could the upper lapels have sported 504th DI's at one time? Best, Bill K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best, Bill K. Thanks!! Possibly, but the upper lapels had ghosting from collar brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry F. Posted October 25, 2017 Share #30 Posted October 25, 2017 That's a super nice 504th! I've got one too (unnamed) in the collection. Who knows....maybe they served together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
