WW2 officer US Army Air Force Corp leather D1 bomber jacket USAF DAKOTA QUEEN. Another original item from. Here is your chance to own an incredible D1 bomber jacket from the European Theater of Operations and from within a very famous unit. The jacket is named on the underside of the interior pocket and has not been researched. D1’s were typically preferred by ground crew personnel. The individual bombs painted on the jacket as well as the text were done with a brush and I have taken a loupe to show the legitimacy of this paint. The woman pinup figure was done in airbrush and I have shown the details of this work as well. One exterior pocket zipper was period replaced. The jacket is hard worn but a desirable size and has the most impressive imagery. A great looking D-1 in good overall condition and ready for your collection. A few interesting excerpts from some Online research. On McGovern’s December 15 mission over Linz, his second as pilot, a piece of shrapnel from flak came through the windshield and missed fatally wounding him by only a few inches. [46] The following day on a mission to Brüx, he nearly collided with another bomber during close-formation flying in complete cloud cover. [47] The following day, he was recommended for a medal after surviving a blown wheel on the always-dangerous B-24 take-off, completing a mission over Germany, and then landing without further damage to the plane. [48] On a December 20 mission against the koda Works at Pilsen, Czechoslovakia, McGovern’s plane had one engine out and another in flames after being hit by flak. Unable to return to Italy, McGovern flew to a British airfield on Vis, a small island in the Adriatic Sea off the Yugoslav coast that was controlled by Josip Broz Tito’s Partisans. The short field, normally used by small fighter planes, was so unforgiving to four-engined aircraft that many of the bomber crews who tried to make emergency landings there perished. But McGovern successfully landed, saving his crew, a feat for which he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross. On March 14 McGovern had an incident over Austria in which he accidentally bombed a family farmhouse when a jammed bomb inadvertently released above the structure and destroyed it, an event that haunted McGovern. [54] Four decades later, after a McGovern public appearance in that country, the owner of the farm approached the media to let the senator know that he was the victim of that incident but that no one had been hurt and the farmer felt that it had been worth the price if that event helped achieve the defeat of Nazi Germany in some small way. McGovern was greatly relieved. April 25 saw McGovern’s 35th mission, which marked fulfillment of the Fifteenth Air Force’s requirement for a combat tour, against heavily defended Linz. The sky turned black and red with flak McGovern later said, “Hell can’t be any worse than that” and the Dakota Queen was hit multiple times, resulting in 110 holes in its fuselage and wings and an inoperative hydraulic system. McGovern’s waist gunner was injured, and his flight engineer was so unnerved by his experience that he would subsequently be hospitalized with battle fatigue, but McGovern managed to bring back the plane safely with the assistance of an improvised landing technique.

The chenille 410 Fighter Squadron insignia consists of a red and white bordered light blue disc with a large drawn bow, the arrow mounted by a fighter aircraft. The interior has the original AAF woven nomenclature tag listing maker POUGHKEEPSIE LEATHER COAT CO. Poughkeepsie Leather Coat Co. The lining and cuffs are replacements and were done for the veteran to wear the jacket after the war which probably helped preserve the piece in all seriousness. The pocket contained a brass safety whistle which is also included in the listing. The flight helmet is the classic marriage of British RAF and U. AAF gear that so many 8th Air Force fighter pilots are seen with in period photos: Type “C” chamois-lined brown leather flying helmet has been modified with U. “ANB-H-1″ receivers complete with wiring loom and plug, and is complete with scarce WWII production RAF MK VIII flying goggles with RAF blue-gray strap, light brown face pad, and green tinted angled lenses in blue-gray metal frames.

WW2 officer US Army Air Force Corp leather A2 bomber jacket USAF HELLS ANGELS. Another original item from. Here is your chance to own an incredible A-2 bomber jacket from the European Theater of Operations and from within a very famous unit. The airman that originally wore this iconic piece of aviation history was within the 303rd Bomb Group, 358th Bomb Squadron. The patch is heavily faded and portrays a bombardier wearing an angel’s halo dropping a bomb from a cloud. The 358th Bomb Squadron patch is machine-sewn through the lining. The “Talon” brand zipper and pocket snaps are fully functional. The jacket is hard worn but a desirable size and has the most impressive imagery. A great looking A-2 in good overall condition and ready for your collection. As you know the famous motorcycle gang was formed after the war from remnants of the service and for all we know this could have been one of the founding fathers. Unfortunately the name tag has been lost to time and only the initials J. Appear on the interior of the jacket. The 303rd Bombardment Group was first activated in February 1942. During World War II, the 303rd was one of the first VIII Bomber Command B-17 Flying Fortress units based out of England. The group’s “Hell’s Angels” is recognized by the USAF as the first B-17 to complete 25 combat missions in the ETO on May 13, 1943, six days before the Memphis Belle. The group went on to fly more than 300 combat missions, more than any other B-17 group in the theater. The B-17 “Knock-out Dropper” was the first aircraft in Eighth Air Force to complete 50, then 75 missions. The group was awarded the Distinguished Unit Citation for completing an attack against a heavily defended target in January 1944. The 303rd Bombardment Group was activated in February 1942 as a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bomber group at Pendleton Field, Oregon and assigned within it was the 358th Bombardment Squadron. The group completed training by August 1942 and set sail aboard the RMS Queen Mary and arrived in Great Britain on 10 September before ferrying its planes across the Atlantic. It attacked Saint-Nazaire the following day, although its intended target was La Pallice. Its initial raids were on airfields, railroads and submarine pens in France. As one of only four Flying Fortress groups in VIII Bomber Command during late 1942 and early 1943, the 303rd participated in the development of the tactics that would be used throughout the air campaign against Germany. In 1943, the group began flying missions to Germany, participating in the first attack by American heavy bombers on a target in Germany, a raid on the submarine yards at Wilhelmshaven on 27 January 1943. From that time, it concentrated primarily on strategic bombardment of German industry, marshalling yards, and other strategic targets, including the ball bearing plants at Schweinfurt, shipyards at Bremen and an aircraft engine factory at Hamburg. The 303rd received a Distinguished Unit Citation when adverse weather on 11 January 1944 prevented its fighter cover from joining the group, exposing it to continuous attacks by Luftwaffe fighters. Despite this opposition, the unit successfully struck an aircraft assembly plant at Oschersleben. Although a strategic bombing unit, the squadron was diverted on occasion to close air support and interdiction for ground forces. It attacked gun emplacements and bridges in the Pas-de-Calais during Operation Overlord, the invasion of Normandy, in June 1944; bombed enemy troops during Operation Cobra, the breakout at Saint Lo, and during the Battle of the Bulge. It bombed military installations near Wesel during Operation Lumberjack, the Allied assault across the Rhine. Its last combat mission was an attack on 25 April 1945 against an armament factory at Pilsen. Following VE Day in May 1945 the 303rd Group was reassigned to the North African Division, Air Transport Command and moved to Casablanca Airfield, French Morocco to use its B-17 bombers as transports, ferrying personnel from France to Morocco. However, the two B-17 groups moved to Casablanca proved surplus to Air Transport Command’s needs and the squadron was inactivated in late July 1945 and its planes ferried back to the United States. During the War, the 303rd flew 364 missions, more than any other Eighth Air Force B-17 group, and one group Fort, “Hell’s Angels”, was the first to complete 25 missions.

Finnish M/19 Puukkopistin made By E&F Hörster in Germany for Finnish Army. Started off as a dress knife for NCO to wear in lieu of a sword. Designed by the famous Finnish artist Akseli Gallen-Kallela. Sometimes referred to as NCO Puukko, Gallen-Kallela Puukko, or M/22 Puukko because it is the shorter version Puukkopistin which was added and approved for wear in 1922. It is called a Puukkopistin or Knife Bayonet because it is really a knife, but it looks like it has a bayonet lock button on the bottom of the pommel. Eventually almost all Finnish Army ranks were allowed to wear one. There is a wood handle version for the lowest ranks. It also became not just a dress Puukko but a daily use puukko. Used not only by the Finnish Army, but also by the Civil Guard as well as by Finnish Police. Grip has chip out of it, crossguard is loose, and blade is rough. Price reflects condition so this is an excellent opportunity to own a rare piece of Finnish military history, carried from post Civil War to Winter War and Continuation War. Can pair M19 aka M22 with M/39 Bayonet Leather Sheath I have listed. Sheath is big for it but it fits.
