US Military Surplus A deck jacket issued by the US Navy (USN) as cold weather gear for deck work. The A-2 appeared as an evolution of the N-1 from the 1940s. I will also include information gathered from overseas forums, etc., as a memorandum. By looking at this, you should be able to roughly determine the age of the A-2. The final model of the N-1 deck jacket was 1961. The earliest A-2 models appeared in 1960, and the 1960 and 1961 models are called the earliest specifications (no A-2 markings, triangular flap, cuffs with adjusters and piping, no ribbing, no side adjusters, 100% cotton back satin, etc.) 1962 to 1963 models (triangular flap, cuff piping, 100% cotton back satin) 1964 model only jungle cloth (triangular flap, cuff piping) 1965 model (triangular flap, cuff piping, 100% cotton back satin) These are the early A-2s with triangular flaps and cotton shells. From 1966 onwards, there were no major changes, with a cotton/nylon blend, square flaps, and no cuff piping, continuing until the appearance of the aramid deck jacket in the late 1980s. Of course, there may be individual items that do not fit the above due to model change transition periods or contractors. Each feature would become a vast amount of information if I were to write it all out, so I think this is sufficient. There may be mistakes, so please point them out if you find any. DSA100 and a 4-digit contract, so it's from the 1965 fiscal year. It appears to be the final triangular flap A-2. The side adjuster belts show noticeable fading, and there is some wear on the cuffs, but there are no missing parts, abrasions, or tears. The collar and ribs are also in very clean condition. CONMAR brass zip. No name or stencil. Compared to similar triangular flap jackets, the overall fading is less, and the condition is quite good. Marked size: SMALL Flat measurements: Shoulder width 43cm, Body width 52cm, Sleeve length 62cm, Length 69cm It is definitely difficult to obtain due to the size and condition.
