Yes, I got the Ike jacket and the Safari Jacket, about which I have a great story. The Safari jacket worked out just fine for me, because after tech school(Radar) I was sent to North Africa,Wheelus Air Base, Tripoli Libya. While there a movie was made nearby that starred John Wayne and Sophia Lauren, Legend of the lost http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050629/
The clothing sales building was near my barracks and my roommate was over there when John Wayne came in to buy a Safari Jacket for the movie. According to my roommate Wayne was accompanied by a lot of brass and he broke away from them to talk to my roommate, and A2C. He said that he was a very friendly person and one of the higher ranked Officers called out to him and John waived him off, saying” I’m talking to this airman.” My roommate was still walking on air when he returned to the room. And Yes, John Wayne wore the Safari Jacket in the movie.
Wow, the only good story I ever heard about the safari jacket.
You must’ve gone to Scott AFB, like I did.
