Bob Hudson Posted April 23, 2010 Share #4 Posted April 23, 2010 It was causing too much drama, wringing of hands and gnashing of teeth and kept getting too far afield of the topic, so it has been deep-sixed, but the new owner can post their pictures when they get it and we can all be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue7289 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share #5 Posted April 23, 2010 What drama were you referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hudson Posted April 23, 2010 Share #6 Posted April 23, 2010 What drama were you referring to? There were a bunch of the seller's photos posted and we had to use most of them for copyright reasons (we can legally use a couple for educational purposes but not all of them). Of course individuals are free to post all of their own photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue7289 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share #7 Posted April 23, 2010 So, if I get the ok from Bill ( and me the owner) you'll reinstate the thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintageproductions Posted April 23, 2010 Share #8 Posted April 23, 2010 What Forum Support is saying is that when you get the suit in your hands, you can post all the photos you want. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabrejet Posted April 24, 2010 Share #12 Posted April 24, 2010 I read the thread before it was pulled...but can someone explain to this Brit just what a "party suit" constitutes in the context of the US military? It's not a term I've encountered before. Thanks! Sabrejet :think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabrejet :think: "Party suits" are clothing items made recreational use, such as unofficial parties: they made from often colorful one piece coveralls-type outfits adorned with all sorts of patches. They seemed to have originated with pilots in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. One of our members, vintageproductions, has several you can see at his online store: http://tinyurl.com/partysuits Without the patches on them, the party suits are nothing more than very tacky short-sleeved coveralls of the type that were once favored by retired old men for mucking about.
