Back in the mid 1980s Avirex were big in England and this picture was a part of a large stand up montage advertising piece most shops used. Unfortunately Avirex did not sell wartime style B3s. Yes they sold sheepskin jackets with a B3 label but none of the jackets had B3 details such as the reinforcing on the arms, asymmetrical sewn zip or single pocket.View attachment 79837

Not sure these dudes are operating during WW2 - that's a Czech SA 23 submachine gun, only introduced in 1948, and they're using US grenades as far as I can see. Love to know when and where they ARE operating, though!View attachment 107791

That picture just makes me want a 1920s Aero work coat...
This must be a damn comfy, practical good-looking every day wearer!
