G-1 Flight Jacket

G-1 leather flight jacket complete with squadron patches and some from the Presidential squadron that were added later. Name and rank sewn on the breast. Worn mostly in cold monsoon weather, but also in aircraft. Temperatures would drop 1-3 degrees per 1,000 feet so it's cold at 10,000 feet and frigid at 30,000 feet.
