    Default 12th AF ike

    Hello everyone, here's my first ike Jacket of 2021

    A very attractive 12th AF ike, has sterling marked gunner wings, an Air Medal, Purple Heart, and 4 campaign stars on his EAME ribbon. It has a laundry number as well as the owners initial so I'm hoping this one is resarchable.
    As always thanks for looking and let me know what you think below

    Very nice 12Th. Airforce Jacket. My wife's Uncle 1st. Lt. James C. Adams was a Bombardier/Navigator with the 12th. A.F. Flying out of Foggia Italy and was shot down in a B-25 after bombing marshaling yards around Rome. He spent the next two years as a POW at Luft Stalag 1 Barth Germany and was liberated by the Russians in April 1945. BILL

    Sorry I couldn't respond till now, work had me busy. But Rene you are a wizard! When I tried typing in the laundry number on that website I got 3 results that were garbled jibberish.
