Hey Carl,
Did your photos download properly? Or is it on my end. I go to your post and all I can see in the photo's is enlarged chunks of fur. Again might be on my end but all other thread photos seem fine.

Sweet jacket there Carl! I have my Father-In-Law's but it might be a B-10. I'll dig it out and check it out.

Hey Carl,
You are correct. I "mistyped" but mean't B-11. The O'l flying fingers got in the way. Anyhow here are some pics of my B-11. As you know the same as the B-9 but with an alpaca lining instead of the quilted lining. This belonged to my Father-In-Law. Paul Redkovich - 490th BG, 850th BS. Flew most of his missions on the B-17 "Lady Helene". (Pilot's wife's name)
He told me he used this in flight on
occasion
.

Should have said "basically" the same as the B-9 but in addition to the linings the B-11 does not have knit cuffs and the exterior pockets are different.
