No Quarter Posted March 20, 2019 Share #3 Posted March 20, 2019 Nice jackets! I don't have any painted or patched jackets but I have this salty A-2. Not in good condition but can't complain for $25. Also found a piece of a 1940s cigarette pack in the pocket. Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manayunkman Posted April 25, 2019 Share #15 Posted April 25, 2019 The ball turret gunner was from New Jersey and they called him Jersey. Jersey's girlfriend was an artist and she came up with the design. Jersey Bounce was a song that was out at the time. Jersey is also a cow.
