Getting my US Authentic A-2-ADVICE ON DETAILS
I have a collection of probably several thousand A-2 pictures and have noticed that comparatively few seemed to have the HQ patch/stencil on them. But many did. Do a web search. Type in some specific WWII Bomb Group or Fighter Groups and see what comes up picturewise. The jacket looks cool...- herk115

Jacket for a lifetime: A2, or some alternative?

Getting my US Authentic A-2-ADVICE ON DETAILS
What to do About Stiff Leather? Okay, I've got a question for the group. It may not fit this thread and if that's the case I'll gladly start a new thread if someone will tell me how. I recently purchased a great Aero on Ebay. It looks really cool and is definitely a keeper. However the...- herk115

Unit Patches This message is for sixties.nut. What units were you assigned to? I'm a patch collector and you never know, maybe I've got what you're looking for, or know someone who does. Also, are you checking Ebay? Great source for patches. Cheers, Herk115- herk115

Enjoy the Jakcet! Hi, USAAFAcePilot. I just wanted to add a little more to the thread to make my position clear. Though yours and most other responses to my post were generally favorable, I want to assure you that if a U.S. Authentic is what makes you happy, then I am happy for you. I was...- herk115

U.S. Authentic A-2 Hi, USAAFAcePilot. I'm new to this forum and this is my first post. I'd like to add my $.02 to this discussion and help you find the jacket you want. First of all, my qualifications for this subject: I spent ten years as combat aircrew in the U.S. Air Force, and in 1988...- herk115
