Dedicated post to this awesome find!
This is an Original WWII/Korean War Era US Navy USN Flight Jacket Aviator Named & Patched AN-J-3a Size 38.
The patches are US Naval Air Station Pensacola Florida, U.S.S. Independence, and VAH-7 Go-Devils. Each helping to identify the age a provenance of the jacket as well as the named patch on the front.
Smaller size by today's standards but still a great example with period correct wear on the leather. The elastic wrists and waist are all still solid.
Jacket is currently available on the ebay store and will also make an appearance in Tampa for Totally Rad Vintage Fest!
