1938 USN 37J1 Jacket Cadet green
The 37-J-1 flight jacket, introduced in the pre-World War II era, was a lightweight jacket designed for the U.S. Navy. Made from sturdy cotton twilljungle cloth, it offered pilots essential protection and flexibility during flight. Unlike its leather counterparts, the 37-J-1 was lighter and more breathable, making it ideal for warmer climates and non-combat missions.
