Bebel Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share #27 Posted March 3, 2011 Thanks Mike. I will continue to take photos and sahre them on the forum. Hope that you enjoy! :thumbsup: So here's a "Rigger transformed" (with additional chest pockets) USN "G-8" nylon jacket. It is the version B from the beginning of the 60's. Unfortunately, all his patches were gone when I found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
