Description
Exact Measurements: Chest - 36" Length - 24" There is no size on the tag since they were not added until 1944. The actual measurements match what would be considered a Small Short. Excellent condition, minimal wear. Issued to a 'C. E Striegel', as can be seen on the tag and inner waistband. Tag is also marked 'F A' next to rate. This along with the Petty Officer 3rd Class (PO3) Machinist's Mate (MM) patch likely indicates that the original owner was issued this jumper when they were still a Fireman Apprentice. Also features a Service Stripe/Hash Mark indicating four years of active duty service. 100% wool. Manufactured by Naval Clothing Factory, USA, 1943.
