Default Sleeveless Leather Jerkin

There was one in the D-Day Dodger's footlocker(CMP C-60 driver in the RCASC which I miracoulously saved) after mother threw All his equipment out after he died.It was dark brown & the lining was made from dark green Khaki from blankets.In Italy they had locals sew in the lining.Unfortunately,it was thrown out with the ENTIRE contents of th locker including his boots,webbing ,helmet,gaiters---Ohhh,it makes me mad talking about it
