ORIGINAL VINTAGE B-11 1943 WWII US ARMY AIR FORCE ALPACA LINED PARKA JACKET SIZE 42. The parka was standardized in 1943.

It was one of the earliest cold weather garments to see service in WWII. The B-9 was essentially the same as the B-11 but featured a quilted lining rather than the alpaca lining.

WWII, the B-11 featured a wool blend lining and a fur-lined hood for extreme weather conditions, a concern for Army soldiers. The parka features a front zipper with buttons over the zipper. There are two side chest pockets with two front flap pockets.

The mouton fur hood also features a mouton fur piece to cover the neck area. The upper sleeve has the Army Air Forces emblem stamp. Most of the Army Air Forces stamp is intact and not too much fading.

The jacket is in excellent condition, no fading, no stains, and no rips. I just discovered this and two other pieces that I had stored away in a footlocker that I forgot about. When I found the locker, it hadnt been open in over 25 years. Please look over the pictures carefully as they are also part of the description. This item has been in my collection for many years.
