hi dave superb goggles and in excellent condition can i ask how the lower apron is fixed to the goggles thanks for sharing, james
Where/when were these used? Tankers in winter?
Thanks for sharing!

James, thanks for checking the goggles,they are attached by (3) snaps or poppers (1) at each side and (1) in the middle.............DAVE H
Nitram,I believe they were used by USAAF crew in open area's of the plane and possibly at high altitudes.......DAVE H
