USAF 305th Air Rescue Squadron SAR Search & Rescue Vintage Jolly Green Jacket
One Original USAF 305th Air Rescue Squadron SAR Search & Rescue Vintage Jolly Green Jacket. Poly green shell is excellent. There are several small imperfections in the fabric, though muted and noticeable. Stain on left cuff and at sleeve…. Appears as oil or mechanical fluid. A few other spots but are not as bad as that one. This may have been “BOBS” racing jacket as a NOVI PATCH HAS BEEN applied above the embroidered name. The design on the reverse is a transfer type and not embroidered. Snaps are all present and working. Birdie tag in neck. Marked M for MEDIUM. This jacket measures as a near 46. 305th squadron patch sewn to chest. The bright whites are now dull from wear and time…. I wear a 46 suit jacket.. This jacket will almost button up when I tried it on but not quite large enough. Interior white quilted poly is faded and stains as shown. This jacket will display nicely or have cleaned for wear. I estimate the vintage period from post war Vietnam late 1970s to early 1980s. I will provide the item as pictured. Multiple images of one item on offer. I’m gone find my baby. Before that sun goes down.
