Jacket, HBT (Herringbone Twill), Special, US Army, 42R, 1943
€150.00
Tax included
Genuine WWII US Army 'Special' HBT overshirt, featuring an inner flap behind the front buttons and two buttons under the collar intended for attaching the antigas woolen hood.
This type, which features two buttoned-flap breast cargo pockets, was worn both as a combat jacket and as a utility jacket in the ETO, particularly in Normandy.
The present jacket is in perfect condition and retains all buttons and labels. Dated April 8, 1943. Size 42R. Some markings, once inked on the back and later covered with a small cloth patch, tend to indicate that this jacket was issued to the French Army after the war.
