AZPhil Posted February 3, 2021 Share #3 Posted February 3, 2021 Wow, Another first time seeing one of these in color. Great size!! They kind of look like the mechanic coveralls that were used at time by flight crews. What time frame were these used? Semper Fi Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomfixer Posted February 3, 2021 Share #4 Posted February 3, 2021 I have seen them mainly with aviation cadets....not limited to cadets.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-59A Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted February 4, 2021 The tag has the AC on it. I don't know the production numbers, but the AC puts it no later than early war. My understanding is as phantomfixer say's . These were all over the place. Cadets, ground crews and aircrews early on in the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZPhil Posted February 4, 2021 Share #6 Posted February 4, 2021 Thank you for the answer. I wasn't sure if this is something I should look at to add to my early-mid 44' collection. Semper Fi Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
