The Story

Genuine US Military issue

Circa. 1940s

This exceptionally rare 45-D HBT jacket was worn by an American prisoner of war. What sets this apart from other POW jackets is the large fabric “P” stitched to the back, a striking and unusual identifier. Unlike the more commonly seen stencilled or painted markings, the sewn-on letter makes this a particularly rare piece.

The base is a second pattern HBT jacket from the late World War 2 era. Produced from 1943 until the end of WW2 and throughout the Korean War.

Truly an archival piece for the advanced military vintage collector, this jacket deserves good treatment and careful handling. It is in very good condition considering its age and history. Please study the photographs carefully.
