Incredible, super collectible piece of militaria— a late 1950s charcoal grey souvenir jacket from the Cold War Era, when American soldiers were stationed in West Germany. Has embroidery all over! Has letters spelling \"Merrick\" and \"New York\" on the sleeves. \"Baumholder, Germany\" on the top center back, with the popular military slogan \"Hitch in Hell.\" A map of Germany with a US & German flag, and the year 57- 60 on the bottom. The front has embroidery that reads \"B 20th Trans BN\" (Company B, 20th Transportation Battalion, a tactical transport unit which was stationed in Baumholder and supported the 8th Infantry Division) and the other side reads \"PAUL\", with the 8th Infantry Division insignia (they were nicknamed the Golden Arrow division). Jacket has pockets, and is fully reversible, too! An amazing collector\'s piece.
