OD green MA-1 jackets, when did they sell these?

Post by p51 »

Looks like an early AC patch, in the form of a F-14 design on the left sleeve:

When AC started up in 1990. I think these lasted until about 1992 or 93.

I figured it had to be from the 90s as it has the 'Space gear' label and SC patch from that general era.
Got a great deal on it, couldn't resist.
I think nobody bid on it as it has a few small stains on the back in the photos. I know that those jackets dry clean pretty easily, and I did just that. Looks just fine, even though the postage and dry cleaning costs almost as much as the jacket did. Still, even then, it was a pretty good deal, on a jacket that fits me very well and was used just enough to look, "borken in."

Not back then. In the 80s and early 90s, that was normal.
Go back and look at uniforms during Desert Storm to see what I mean.
