I bought this for 20 dollars at a garage sale last weekend.  There is no label but it has USN in white under the collar.  However it has a YKK zipper which I understand was not used on original USN G-1 military jackets.  It has stitching marks on the upper left where a leather name patch used to be sewn.  The name THOMPSON is written in blue ink on the inside of the inner pocket.  So is this an genuine USN G-1 jacket and if so is there anyway of dating it?

Nice real jacket that’s simply had a replacement zipper to prolong its usefulness
