    New authentic G-1 flight jacket

    My awesome wife bought me a brand new authentic Navy G-1 bomber jacket for Christmas, and it was expensive.
    I was in the Navy 1987-1991 and did time on an aircraft carrier as an airdale.
    Every squadron had a unit logo that they made into patches. I kept them this whole time, I always wanted to get this done but life gets in the way, most of the time.
    I had a local seamstress sew them on the jacket. She even removed the silk liner and sew it back in when she was finished.
    Anyway here is my jacket, I hope everyone likes it, I sure do.

    That's cool, I have a drawer full of patches that all look very similar to yours.
    I was deployed to the TR about the same time you were on the Indy.
