The U.S. Army M-41 Field Jacket Was One Of The Most Distinctive Jacket Designs Of Wwii. The Field Jacket Was First Produced In 1940, As ‘Jacket, Field, Olive Drab’. The Familiar Designation Of ‘M-41’ Was Not Actually An Official One. Indeed The First Version Of This Model Is Often Referred To As An M-38, The Most Noticeable Difference Being That It Had Flaps To The Pockets. Modeled After A Civilian Windbreaker Design Suggested By Major General James K. Parsons, It Was Constructed Of A Pale Olive Drab Shade Cotton Poplin For The Outer Shell, With A Dark Olive Drab/Khaki Blanket Wool Flannel For The Lining.
Our Reproduction Is That Of P.Q.D. No. 20A, Dated May 6, 1941. Its Shell Is Made Of 7 Oz. Combed Cotton Canvas, Color Od3, With Chocolate-Colored Resin Buttons And Talon 5# Zipper. The Liner Is Wool Blended.
