USAAF glider pilots were issued field jackets for the Normandy landings, so no reason not to post it here!Rocky/Stallone wore this M-65 throughout Creed (not a flight jacket, but there is no thread for Famous People in Non-Flight Military Jackets):
Thats a great photo! Pretty cool jacket as well . . . ain't many people that can legitimately wear that one.
Crikey, he was only 59 when that photo was taken! The next year he was dead at only 60.

Monty was only 56, younger than me! Do I look that old? Now I am glad James isn't posting, I know what his answer would be!This chap wears it well.
