Default Us rain jackets-poncholiners etc.

Back in the 80's i operated a surplus store near cfb gagetown which was a busy spot.i soon learned there was a need for good raingear as the guys returning from germany were wearing gi raingear.i imported rainjackets-poncoliners-jacketliners-foam sleeping mats by the cases and sold them as fast as i could get it.even the rcr kit shop bought it.i would'nt want to guess the quantity of merchandise that went to the military at gageton.i do not remember the year when they were issued decent raingear but i sold a pile.anybody from gagetown remember?Forgot the cases of Jacket liners another good piece of kit at that time.
