A-2 and G-1 Flight Jackets: Hell-Bent for Leather Paperback - 2002

by Derek Nelson; Dave Parsons (Joint Author)


From the publisher

Nostalgic black-and-white and period color photos depict the legendary Army Air Corps and Air Force jacket as worn by airmen in World War II and the Korean War. Anecdotes and a history of the jacket's service are accompanied by marvelous images of the hand-painted art that more often than not adorned the backs of these garments. *This is a paperback re-issue of Hell Bent for Leather.*

First line

When a new leather flight jacket hit the Army Air Corps warehouse in May 1931, supply sergeants probably didn't realize that they were handing out pieces of history.
