40s WW2 Vintage '45D' HBT Jacket - Large
Genuine US Military issue
A second-pattern HBT jacket from the late World War 2 era. These jackets were worn by US troops from 1943 until the end of WW2 and throughout the Korean War.Ā
There were three specifications of the 2nd pattern HBT jacket: 45B, 45C, and 45D, each with various design nuances.
