Offered here is an original World War II United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) enlisted service coat in olive drab wool, complete with original period insignia and strong historical character throughout. This coat is not a generic surplus example-it retains its original Army Air Forces "Hap Arnold" shoulder patch, Staff Sergeant sleeve rank insignia, aviation branch chevrons, armament specialty insignia, brass U.
Collar discs, and chest aviation qualification wings. The sleeve insignia indicates Staff Sergeant rank within the Army Air Forces, while the blue inverted triangle armament insignia identifies the wearer as an aircraft armament specialist-typically responsible for bomb loading, aircraft weapons systems, aerial ordnance, and flight-line support operations.
