Information:
Last contract of the B-10. Cyrillic on back says American. I’ve seen one other example online with the same marking for a 2LT Ed Smith, a prisoner of war who served 9 months in Stalag Luft 1, located near Barth Germany and almost exclusively held Allied airmen. The Germans wrote USA in red on his, exactly like this example. That camp was liberated April 31st, 1945, with German troops leaving the day prior to Soviet arrival as the prisoners refused to evacuate. This is the most likely reason for the Cyrillic on the back. Zipper is broken at bottom. Some other wear shown. Tagged size 40. Check pictures and measurements before purchase.
