20558 Click for more photos | Army Korean War, 1952 dated cold weather parka by Cookson & Clegg Ltd. This was introduced during the Korean War because greatcoats were found to be insufficient in keeping out the Korean winter cold. It was designed to wear over the combat smock & also the Denison style crotch strap for use 'when required'. It is jungle green & lined in green faux fur. Fastened with a green metal zipper, this needs a light clean to get it working. The parka has wooden toggle to tighten in use & large buttons for cold handling. Hood has steel wire edging for adjustment of fit. One internal button missing but does not detract. These were also possibly worn by Australians in Korea. G-VGC. Not often seen. | SOLD at A$100 | ||
