The US Army jacket I mentioned has a tag that reads:
Jacket, Man's, Water Repellant Army
Black 385 with liner
It goes on to say that it is specification UOCS-06-80 and Certification 8-2076-KL.
It was made by Blauer Mfg. Co. of Boston.
When my Dad was in the Army, he had rank pins on the epaulettes, but nothign sewn on, so if you find one in a surplus store it can look good as new, even if it's worn. It's not "puffy" like a flight jacket. In fact, it fits like a Levi's jean jacket -- just it's warmer.
