Jacket, Parachutist. 1942 Pattern Over Smock Dated 1942 Early Production

Nice original British Paratroopers over smock as worn by Parachutists during jumps to prevent rigging lines from snagging. This example is very early, dated 1942. Air Ministry marked zipper, newer stud buttons with label and O stamped WD code inside. Produced by Cohen & Wilks in size 2. One small snag to the lower left. Some minor staining but a nice used example pre Normandy. Both elasticated pockets present for the No.36 Mills bombs.
