I finally found a brown leather flight jacket at a second hand store, and I assume it is an imitation, but in case it isn't, I am curious if it was used in WWII. The only info I have found on the jacket is that the label says Aberdeen on it, and I have been unable to find any information on that name. Can anyone help me identify it?

The world of A-2 and leather flying jackets in general is very complex and much-argued-over !

You may be better checking out the Vintage Leather Jacket Website and Forum - there are some real experts there.....
