It was also officially ordered for Marine Corps helicopter pilots and others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"280\" data-end=\"363\"\u003eAt that time, CISO ordered equipment from its affiliated factories in various locations (Okinawa, Taiwan, South Vietnam, etc.),\u003cbr data-start=\"325\" data-end=\"328\" \/\u003eThis item is considered to be one of the locally made items manufactured in the process. The fabric used is \u003cstrong data-start=\"376\" data-end=\"398\"\u003eOkinawa Tiger Pattern, which is in very good condition\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is in almost unused condition, which is extremely rare for this type of item. There are a few small scratches near the collar and other areas that look as if they have been caught. The zipper is a little stiff due to age and needs to be waxed to make it work better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"449\" data-end=\"595\"\u003eThe zipper has \u003cstrong data-start=\"455\" data-end=\"466\"\u003eYKK parts\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is another characteristic detail of Okinawan-made items.\u003cbr data-start=\"493\" data-end=\"496\" \/\u003eFurthermore, the name is placed on the chest, and since the placement of \u003cstrong data-start=\"515\" data-end=\"539\"\u003ethe name is the position of the branch name on regular military-issued items\u003c\/strong\u003e, there is a high possibility that this item was not simply a ready-made item, but \u003cstrong data-start=\"561\" data-end=\"580\"\u003eequipment that was prepared for a specific individual\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"597\" data-end=\"684\"\u003eWhile details of the owner are unknown,\u003cbr data-start=\"610\" data-end=\"613\" \/\u003eDue to its nature, it is a very romantic piece that could have \u003cstrong data-start=\"619\" data-end=\"666\"\u003ebeen used in the battlefield by people other than military personnel, such as photographers, civilian contractors, and CIA personnel\u003c\/strong\u003e.
