"Flying Circus" Jacket

In 1944 the 380th Bomb Group adopted the name "Flying Circus." The donor served with the group in the Pacific as a statistical control officer and sometimes flew as an observer on B-24 missions, wearing this jacket.

This jacket was donated by Mr. Max Markman, South Euclid, Ohio.
