I recently picked up a 2nd type Vietnam jungle jacket mint / brand new / unworn etc.. but the cloth is poplin but almost handkerchief weight. It’s like lightweight but then some. 
 

I own a 1st type , 2.5 type ( retains tags of 2nd and gloss buttons ) without waist tabs and rank slides , 3rd type poplin and the poplin cloth has been pretty much consistent from 1st to last in weight. The 2nd type I’ve acquired is pretty much see through when exposed to light as the weave count seems low. The jacket to has dull buttons with a light white frosting to them too rather than high gloss polished.
