I picked there up at the flea market. I don't know that much about this stuff which I'm assuming is USN as I found a US Navy stamping on the nozzle end of the oxygen mask.

Yes it's Navy equipment and as much as I can tell from the pictures the harness, preserver and coveralls look to be in pretty good condition. The Mk3 preserver on the torso harness is nice to have as it seems they are getting harder to find and they're actually not that hard to repack... (FYI the two small pouches on the inside of the preserver are for smoke/signal flares and if you decide to put the o2 mask back together flip your hose around)

Great! MK-3 preservers are now hard to find and the MA-2 torso harness is an early model. The Z-2 anti-g suit was not used with torso nor MK-3. These two ones were used together a few later.
