Italian Camoflage Material Parka

[stgeorge64]

After looking for one of these for some time, the 'right one' finally surfaced last year and I duly handed over the money.

In overall well used but sound condition, the Italian camoflage material still retains some good colour. There are some field repairs evident and the waist draw cord has been removed.

There are no Czech 'VU' (Vojensky Utvar No) present so, this particular piece may well of not found employment in the Czech army post WWII.

Pictures are self explanatory and I hope that they may prove of interest.

Regards Richard.

It would be nice to see some more examples of these posted here from your collections, as there are many good examples of these out there....:thumbup1:
