Description
Original Item: Only One Available. WW2, U.S. Army, Combat Field Jacket or Tanker Jacket. This hard wearing and warm jacket was the perfect replacement for the in service M1938 and M1941 jackets. When worn with it’s matching bibbed trousers it became the combat uniform of choice for the Armored Forces and was much in demand by all other ground forces, even AAF pilots were seen wearing this jacket!
This jacket is in good condition, the “gold” hued color is still strong while the cuffs, collar and waist band display minor wear and are sturdy and totally wearable. The jacket shell and liner are in good condition with little wear or damage but there is splattered staining. Original tag is present but faded. Zipper functional but original zipper pull is missing. Left shoulder bears a Armor Division patch. This is a very nice hard to find jacket.
