Original Wwii Army

Happy to try to answer questions. Nice bonus coffee mug included.   

This is an original bullion patch from the US Army's 9th Air Force during World War II (1939-45). The patch features intricate embroidery and is a genuine piece of militaria from that era. It is from a collection and was glued onto black construction paper at the top on the back.   

   Up for your consideration is an amazing and rare combat worn US Air Corp World War II survival vest with holster. This was picked up by my Grandfather somewhere in his many travels. He was a British Military Officer during World War II and later a Diplomat. He most likely traded a US Military Officer for this vest. I do know he brought this home from the war. It was worn in combat. This has been displayed in my office for many years. This WWII World War 2 II US Army Air Corp Force C-1 Survival Vest With Holster is a must-have for any militaria collector.

WWII US Army Air Corps 2nd Air Force Cold Weather Jacket. No size tag, but measures 19 inches shoulder to shoulder, 21 inches armpit to armpit and 25 inches shoulder to cuff. There is a button missing, one is loose, no belt and a small moth hole on the left elbow. Still in good condition for its age.   

This is a really nice set. This is as I found it. A-9 flight helmet, m1944 goggles (identical to b-8 - this pair marked USN) and A-10 oxygen mask. The mask is the early version that goes up over the bridge of the nose. This is extremely difficult to find.   

I included lots of photos because they offer the best description. As you can see, jacket is stained, somewhat holey, and zipper is separating on one side. Damage/thinning on lining, though not a great deal. Fortunately, jacket is in decent condition and is not falling apart. It's labeled Property Of U. Size is men's 40 Regular. Pit to pit is 24.   

Shoulder to Shoulder 16 inch Shoulder to tip of sleeve 23 inch Back of collar to bottom of jacket edge 30 1/2 inch.   

There is no size label, but it fits closest to a size small. Shoulder to Shoulder: 18.5.   

The piece is vintage and therefore may show signs of age, wear, or patina. At that time, an unpaid item case will automatically be opened. It will be left, but please be patient. Do not message me seeking feedback.   

There are a few tiny stains on the front right breast pocket, and more stains on the left sleeve. Please look over attached photos to get a better idea of the overall condition. It is labeled as a size 38 R and fits true to size.
